How to manage the prompt library
Learn how to create, organize, and edit custom prompts in the prompt library for efficient writing.
Access the prompt library: In the chat interface, enter the "/" key in the text box and click "Manage prompt library" from the menu.
Create a folder (optional): To organize your prompts, click the "+ Folder" button and name your folder accordingly.
Create a new custom prompt: Click the "+ New prompt" button to create a new custom prompt.
Describe the prompt: Provide a brief description of the prompt, and Cassidy will automatically generate a refined prompt based on your description. Alternatively, click "Create prompt manually (advanced)" to write the prompt yourself.
Name and write the prompt: If creating the prompt manually, give your prompt a name and write out the content of the prompt.
Use placeholders: In your prompt, use [brackets] to add placeholders for parts of the prompt that may change each time you use it. For example, if you have a placeholder for tone, you could write [professional] one time and then [witty] the next time.
Reference the knowledge base: Use the "#" symbol within your prompt to reference specific items from your knowledge base, if needed.
Add example outputs: Provide examples of your ideal outputs so that Cassidy can tailor the response to better match your desired style and format.
Save the prompt: Click "Save" to store your custom prompt in the library.
Use or edit the prompt: Click "Use prompt" if you want to use the prompt immediately, or you can always edit the prompts later as needed.
*Prompts created in the library are public and visible to everyone in your organization.
