Copy Settings

Copy settings

Copying is the most repeated act in AI work, and copy settings decide what a copy carries. Use custom copy settings PRO is the switch: off, every copy takes the text exactly as it stands; on, copies follow your configuration on the Settings tab, which shapes two things: the format the copy keeps, and whether it carries its source with it. This page covers the switch, the configuration, and where custom copies apply.

Prerequisites:

• Signed in: Settings belong to your account. See sign in to the extension.
• A PRO or MAX plan: Use custom copy settings is a PRO feature, included in MAX. On the free plan the toggle carries its upgrade path to pricing.
• The two surfaces: Where settings live is covered in settings interfaces.

The switch and the configuration#

The feature splits cleanly in two:

• The switch: Use custom copy settings lives in both surfaces, the pop-up's PREFERENCES and the Settings tab, so it flips mid-work like the other everyday toggles.
• The configuration: What a custom copy actually does is set on the Settings tab only, alongside the other full-console settings.

Off is not broken; off is verbatim. The toggle exists so one clean default and one custom behaviour can trade places in a click.

What the configuration controls#

• The format the copy keeps: Structured or plain. Structured keeps the response's shape through the copy: headings, lists, and code blocks survive the paste. Plain strips the formatting to bare text, for destinations where structure is noise: a form field, a plain-text editor, a chat that mangles Markdown.
• The source it carries: Attribution on or off. On, the copy arrives with where it came from appended, the conversation it was copied out of, so pasted material stays traceable days later, when the deliverable is full of fragments and none of them say where they were found.

Where custom copies apply#

The configuration governs copies of conversation content:

• Copy last response: On the floater and the sidebar's quick-action strip. See the interface.
• Copy on captured turns: The Copy action on USER and ASSISTANT cards in the Collect tab. See chat capture.

One boundary by design: Copy prompt content stays verbatim regardless of the toggle. A prompt is an asset copied to be used as written, so it takes the content field exactly. See insert a prompt from the main page.

Set it up#

1. Open the Settings tab: the pop-up, then the settings icon in the navigation grid.
Set the configuration:
1. Choose the format custom copies should keep, structured or plain.
2. Set attribution on or off.
2. Turn on Use custom copy settings, here or in the pop-up.
3. Copy something. The next copy follows the configuration, no reload needed, and a single verbatim copy mid-work is one flip of the pop-up toggle away.
