+2. Follow the installation instructions for your platform
+3. Verify the installation works by running `rag-mini --help`
+
+### **Step 2: Gather Industry Documentation**
+Create a folder called `{enhancement['folder']}` and populate it with relevant documentation:
+{get_materials_list(scenario_id)}
+
+**Pro tip**: Look for PDF documents, technical guides, and industry best practices.
+
+### **Step 3: Build Your Intelligent Knowledge Base**
+```bash
+# Navigate to your research folder
+cd {enhancement['folder']}
+
+# Initialize FSS-Mini-RAG index  
+rag-mini init
+
+# Check the index was created successfully
+rag-mini stats
+
+# Get system info to verify everything is working
+rag-mini info
+```
+
+### **Step 4: Test Your Intelligence System**
+Now for the cool part - your documentation is now searchable with natural language! Test these queries:
+
+```bash"""
+
+    # Add search commands
+    for cmd in enhancement['commands']:
+        instructions += f"\n# {get_command_description(cmd)}\n{cmd}\n"
+
+    instructions += f"""```
+
+### **Step 5: Advanced Searches**
+Try these more sophisticated queries:
+
+```bash"""
+
+    # Add advanced commands
+    for cmd in enhancement['advanced_commands']:
+        instructions += f"\n# {get_advanced_description(cmd)}\n{cmd}\n"
+
+    instructions += f"""
+# Update your knowledge base (when you add new documents)
+rag-mini update
+
+# Get detailed statistics about your knowledge base
+rag-mini stats
+```
+
+### **Step 6: Document Your Intelligence System**
