      intent: Read several items atomically
      effect: read
      questions:
      - How do I read several items as one consistent, all-or-nothing snapshot?
      - How many Get actions can one transactional read include?
      instructions:
      - text: 'Read these items in a single transaction: {transact_items}.'
        slots:
          transact_items: requestBody.TransactItems
      - text: Atomically fetch the items {transact_items} from across my tables.

      intent: Write several items atomically
      effect: write
      questions:
      - How do I make several writes succeed or fail together across tables?
      - Can I retry a transactional write safely without applying it twice?
      - What's the maximum number of actions in one all-or-nothing write?
      instructions:
      - text: 'Apply these writes as one atomic transaction: {transact_items}.'
        slots:
          transact_items: requestBody.TransactItems
      - text: Run transactional write {transact_items} with idempotency token {token}.
