Find the YogaMag timed routine for a goal and the minutes the person has: the longest one that fits, or the shortest if none is that short. Returns the routine as published, with its steps, who should skip or modify it, and the follow-along link. If the person avoids the floor, kneeling or weight on the wrists, pass avoid and each step is checked. YogaMag has routines only for the goals listed; if none matches what was asked (for example sleep), say there is no such routine yet and use search_content instead of picking the nearest goal.

Check every step of a YogaMag routine against what the person cannot or does not want to do (the floor, kneeling, weight on the wrists). Each step is kept, swapped for an easier version that the pose's reviewed data lists, marked as having no supported alternative, or marked not assessed. It never invents a substitute; the result is the YogaMag routine with listed swaps, not a new routine.

List poses from the reviewed YogaMag pose library that match a level, body area or type of pose, and that suit what the person avoids (the floor, kneeling, weight on the wrists), naming the easier version where the pose itself does not. Only poses with a reviewed profile are listed. Read a pose with get_glossary_term before describing it.
