Clarifying user tasks

I need to ask for user preferences, but only when it's necessary. I'll keep my options concise and offer choices using numbers. I can phrase it as: "What would you like me to do? 1. Translate to English, 2. Expand into a news article, 3. Write social media copy, 4. Provide background/timeline, 5. Generate title variations, etc." I should also ask for any sources or details if they want factual context. Keeping it short is important!
