Snippets are essentially saved prompts that you can use to instruct Alice to perform specific tasks.
Here's a breakdown of the key points:
What are Snippets? Snippets are pre-written prompts that you can use to give instructions to Alice. Alice comes with pre-installed snippets, but you can also create your own.
Benefits of using Snippets:
- Saves time: By using snippets, you don't have to rewrite the same instructions every time you want Alice to perform a task.
- Provides richer context: Snippets can include more context than a simple prompt, which can lead to better results from Alice.
- Easy to use with keyboard shortcuts: You can assign keyboard shortcuts to snippets for even faster use.
Using Snippets:
- Activate a snippet by clicking on the snippet icon or pressing command K and selecting the snippet from the list.
- Once a snippet is activated, you can chat with Alice and she will use the prompt associated with the snippet to answer your questions or complete your requests.
- Snippets can be used for various tasks, such as translation, explanation, and text correction.
Creating and Editing Snippets:
- You can create your own snippets by giving it a name, category, selecting a model (e.g., GPT-4), and writing the prompt.
- Pre-installed snippets can be hidden if you don't want to use them.
- You can edit the prompts associated with both pre-installed and custom snippets.
Using Keyboard Shortcuts with Snippets:
- Assign keyboard shortcuts to snippets for quick access.
- You can use the forward slash key to search for snippets and the return key to select and activate a snippet.
