## Guidance

- When the user wants to create a cluster, they need a project ID and region ID first. Guide them through `zilliz project list` and `zilliz cluster regions` (see cluster skill).
- Project `upgrade` does not include `Free` as a valid target plan -- only Serverless, Standard, and Enterprise.
- Before deleting a volume, confirm with the user.
