Running a prompt
Run any prompt from the chat slash menu or its card on the Prompts page. Give it your input, then refine, save, or schedule the result.
There are two ways to run a prompt: from the / menu inside any chat, or from its card on the
Prompts page. Either way it arms the prompt's instructions, you give it your input, and it does
the task - usually returning a draft you can save, refine, or schedule.
From the chat slash menu
- 01
Type / in the chat composer
The menu opens with Prompts and Identities. Prompts shows first, grouped by category.
- 02
Pick the prompt you want
Click it (or arrow-key + Enter). The prompt's instructions are now active for this chat.
- 03
Give it your input
Most prompts wait for you to provide something first - a topic, a URL, a piece of writing. The chat box shows a hint for what to paste or
@mention. Some prompts open the conversation themselves and start by asking you a question.
From the Prompts page
Open the Prompts tab, find the prompt, and use its Run action. This opens a fresh chat with that prompt active, ready for your input.
What happens when it runs
- Input-driven prompts wait for you. The composer hint tells you what to give it (e.g. "Paste the YouTube URL you want to study..."). Nothing runs until you send.
- Opening prompts start the conversation themselves - they'll greet you and ask for what they need, then proceed.
Either way, once it has what it needs, it does the task and replies.
Your output is usually a saveable draft
Most prompts that produce a deliverable - a post, a thread, a guide, a customer avatar, a script - return it as a Save to board card rather than plain chat text. Click the card's save button to keep it as a note on a board you pick. Prompts that produce a batch of short posts render them as separate cards you can insert one at a time or save all at once.
Switching or stopping
To run a different prompt, just open / and pick another - it replaces the active one for that
chat. To go back to a normal chat, start a new chat from the chat selector at the top.
Pinning your favorites
Prompts you run often can be pinned so they appear on the chat's empty-state screen for one-click access. Pin a custom prompt from its card on the Prompts page.
What are prompts in Eden
A prompt is a saved, reusable instruction you run from the chat slash menu. Build a library of repeatable tasks once, then run them anytime.
Building your own prompt
Build a prompt by describing a repeatable task in chat. Eden interviews you, writes the instructions, and saves it to your library.
Chatting with a board to write your next post
Eden's chat reads whatever you scope it to (a full board or specific items via @ mention) and uses them as source material. Here is how to set it up, the six built-in presets, and what works well.
