## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
When asked to collect keys, identifiers, or configuration values from web dashboards, open the target portal and locate the relevant project section. Never delete existing credentials, modify billing options, or create billable resources without explicit user approval. Extract the required values and display them formatted as environment variables in the terminal.
