Prompts

Prompts tell the AI how to behave. The Prompt Manager lets you browse built-in domain prompts, create your own, and mark prompts as QuickLauncher shortcuts.

Accessing the Prompt Manager

Open the plugin Settings dialogueue and switch to the Prompts tab.

Active prompt

Right-click any translation prompt in the tree and choose Set as active prompt for this project to designate it as the active prompt. The active prompt is shown with a pin icon and bold blue text. It is used by memory bank Quick Add when appending terminology, and is auto-selected in the Batch Translate dropdown. The active prompt is saved per project.
