Prompt library

The prompt library is where you save prompts you use often and drop them into the chat composer by typing /. Instead of retyping the same request each time, save it once and reuse it. Prompts can be private to you, or shared so everyone in your workspace can use them.

Where to find it

Go to Settings and open Prompts. This is where you create, edit, and delete your prompts.

Prompts are split into two sections:

  • My prompts - private to you.
  • Shared - available to everyone in the workspace.

Create a prompt

  1. On the Prompts page, click New prompt.
  2. Give it a Title - this is the label you will see when inserting it (e.g. “Draft a letter of demand”).
  3. Write the Prompt - the text that gets inserted into the chat composer. Type @ to tag a knowledge base document or precedent (see below).
  4. Click Create prompt.

You can also create a prompt without leaving chat. Type / in the composer and choose New prompt at the bottom of the menu.

Tag knowledge base documents and precedents

Type @ in the prompt to tag a document from your firm’s knowledge base or a precedent, the same way you tag them in chat. When someone inserts the prompt, the tags come with it, so Parachute uses those sources without anyone having to find them again.

You can tag documents from the firm knowledge base only. Documents that belong to a matter cannot be tagged in a prompt, because not everyone can see every matter.

If a tagged document or precedent is removed

When someone archives or deletes a knowledge base document or precedent, the confirmation lists any saved prompts that tag it. You can still go ahead.

After that, the tag stays in the prompt but no longer works:

  • On the Prompts page, the prompt shows tags unavailable.
  • When you edit the prompt, the tag is struck through, with a note naming it. Click Remove to take it out.
  • When you insert the prompt in chat, the tag is added as plain text and Parachute tells you which ones were left out.

If the document or precedent is restored, the tag works again.

Sharpen it with Improve

Inside the create or edit dialog, click Improve to have Parachute rewrite the prompt for clarity and specificity. Parachute reads any tagged documents and precedents while it rewrites, and keeps the tags in the rewritten prompt. Review the result before saving. This is the same rewrite used by improve prompt in the composer.

Insert a prompt in chat

  1. Place your cursor in the chat composer.
  2. Type /. A menu appears listing your prompts, grouped into My prompts and Shared.
  3. Keep typing to filter the list by title.
  4. Select a prompt. Its text is inserted into the composer, ready for you to edit and send.

The prompt is inserted exactly as you saved it, including any tagged documents and precedents, so you can add details or tweak the wording before sending. If you have no saved prompts, typing / does nothing and the character is entered as normal text.

The / menu is available anywhere the chat composer appears, including the Microsoft Word add-in.

Personal and shared prompts

Every member of your workspace can:

  • Create, edit, and delete their own personal prompts.
  • See and use every shared prompt in the workspace.

Only admins can create, edit, or delete shared prompts. Personal prompts stay private to their owner, and admins cannot edit or delete another person’s personal prompts.

Edit or delete a prompt

Each prompt card has two icons on the right:

  • Edit (pencil) - opens the dialog to change the title or prompt.
  • Delete (bin) - removes the prompt after you confirm. This cannot be undone.
