System Prompt
If you want Atua to follow a certain style or set of rules every time, this is where to set it up.
In Settings → General, you will see two prompt areas:
- System Prompt for overall behavior across chat and commands
- Default Command Bar Prompt for extra guidance when you open the command bar without using a saved command
Where To Edit It
Open Settings → General and use Edit Prompt in the Prompts section.
What To Put In The System Prompt
Use the System Prompt for instructions that should apply all the time.
Examples:
- “Always respond in English.”
- “Keep responses concise.”
- “You are a helpful writing assistant. Keep the original tone.”
Where Context Tags Belong
The System Prompt is plain text. It does not use context tags like {{selectedText}} or {{windowContent}}.
If you want the command bar to use context tags, put them in the Default Command Bar Prompt instead.
That prompt supports:
{{selectedText}}{{clipboardContent}}{{appContext}}{{currentDate}}{{screenshot}}{{ocr}}{{windowContent}}{{transcript}}
A Simple Rule
Keep the System Prompt short.
Put task-specific instructions in saved commands.
Put context-aware command bar behavior in the Default Command Bar Prompt.
