Save Prompt from Main Page

Save a prompt from the main page

The main extension page creates prompts away from the chat: Add Prompt on the Prompts view opens the Add New Prompt form as a modal, with the same fields as the sidebar route. This is the natural path when you are building out your library in one sitting rather than saving mid-conversation. This page covers creating the prompt, the sync states that follow, and editing and duplicating a saved prompt, which reuse the same modal.

Prerequisites:

• Signed in: Saving requires a signed-in account. See sign in to the extension.
• Know the surfaces: This page assumes the pop-up and the main extension page from the interface.

Open the Prompts view#

1. Click the pinned Cognardo Workbench icon to open the pop-up.
2. Click the prompts icon in the navigation grid. The main extension page opens on the Prompts & Sequences tab, with the Prompts view active.

Prompts & Sequences also sits in the left navigation of the main extension page, one click from anywhere in the workspace.

Create the prompt#

1. Click Add Prompt. The Add New Prompt modal opens over the page, with Cancel and Save Prompt at the bottom.
Fill in the form:
1. TITLE: Name the prompt. Titles are unique; a title already in use is refused with the message "Title in use. Enter another."
2. CONTENT: The prompt text itself, exactly what insertion will place in the chat. The field scrolls and resizes for long templates. Write {{variable}} placeholders here to make the template reusable; variable syntax is covered in save a prompt from the sidebar.
3. Optimize: Optional. Rewrites the content in place with AI before saving. The button shows its credit cost, and it needs a specific target model, not Custom or All Models.
4. TARGET MODEL: Custom, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, or All Models. Organisational only; it never blocks insertion.
5. TAGS: Pick existing tags from the suggestions or type a new one and press Enter. See manage tags.
2. Click Save Prompt. The modal closes and the prompt appears at the top of the list with its model, tags, and save time.

Watch the sync badge#

The new row starts on an orange PENDING badge while the prompt uploads, then switches to green SYNCED on its own. SYNCED means the prompt is in your account and available on every device you sign in to, in the sidebar's insert list, and in the //prompt shortcut.

Edit a saved prompt#

1. Find the prompt's row and click Edit prompt (the pencil).
2. The same modal opens with the saved values filled in. Change any field.
3. Click Update Prompt. The row returns to PENDING while the update syncs.

Edits take effect everywhere the prompt is used. Insertion always carries the current content, and a sequence that includes the prompt picks up the edit too, since sequences reference prompts rather than copying them. Removing a {{variable}} from the content also removes its step from the insertion flow; adding one adds it. See insert a prompt from the sidebar.

Duplicate a prompt#

Duplicate prompt on a row opens the modal pre-filled as a new prompt: adjust the title and any fields, then save. A duplicate needs at least one change; saving it untouched is refused with the message "No changes detected."
