Commands and variables
Two mechanisms accelerate daily work: orders, typed into the conversation, and the variables, resolved automatically in the system prompt.
Integrated controls
Typed at the beginning of the message, they are processed before anything else — the document search and the model are not used unnecessarily.
/reset
Clears the current thread history. The conversation restarts from scratch, without changing threads or modifying documents.
When to use it: The assistant remains stuck on a previous topic, or the thread has become too long and the responses are deteriorating.
/image
Generates an image from the following description.
/image un schéma isométrique d'un entrepôt logistique, style épuré
Requires that an image generation provider be configured. → Images, videos and voices
/video
Generates a short video from the description below. Requires a configured video generation provider and takes significantly longer than generating an image.
/note
Instantly capture a note in your Second Brain.
/note Le client Dupont préfère être contacté par téléphone le matin.
The note is saved and can be used in your future conversations, across all platforms.
Custom orders
You can define your own shortcuts: a keyword that replaces a long text when sending.
Create an order. From the input area, open the command menu and add a command. You define:
- THE keyword (For example
/synthese) ; - THE replacement text — the complete instructions; ;
- a description, displayed in the menu.
Example. The order /synthese replaced by:
Rédige une synthèse structurée du document en trois parties :
1. Points essentiels
2. Points d'attention ou risques
3. Actions recommandées
Cite le document source pour chaque point.
Then all you have to do is type /synthese to send the whole thing.
Good to know: - Multiple commands can appear in the same message; each one is replaced. - Built-in commands take precedence: do not reuse their names. - Your commands are unique to you and follow you from one space to another.
Typical use cases: proofreading guidelines, report format, customer response template, recurring analysis grid.
System prompt variables
Variables are written between double curly braces in the system prompt with a space and are replaced with each message.
Variables provided
| Variable | Value |
|---|---|
{{date}} |
Today's date |
{{time}} |
Current time |
{{datetime}} |
Date and time |
{{user.name}} |
Username of the writer |
{{user.bio}} |
Description that the user has provided about themselves |
{{workspace.name}} |
Workspace name |
24-hour format variants and technical identifiers are also available in the interface selector.
Custom variables
An administrator can define organization-specific variables in
Réglages → Variables de prompt système : company name, applicable reference framework, contact details of a department, version of a procedure.
The advantage: a value modified in one place propagates to all system prompts that use it.
Example
Nous sommes le {{date}}. Tu assistes {{user.name}} au sein de {{nom_entreprise}}.
Tu travailles dans l'espace « {{workspace.name}} ».
Applique systématiquement {{referentiel_qualite}}.
Why the date matters. A language model has no concept of the present day: without a date variable, "Does the contract expire soon?" has no reliable answer. Injecting it resolves an entire category of errors.
Message processing order
- Integrated control (
/reset,/image,/video,/note) → processed, end. - Custom commands → replaced by their text.
- Prefix
@agent→ the hand passes to the agent. - Otherwise → document search then response generation.
