Prompt Library

Save repeatable AI prompts as files, assign hotkeys, and route workflows to the right provider.

The prompt library turns repeatable AI actions into reusable commands. Instead of writing the same instruction every time, save it once and trigger it from MachinesFluent.

What A Prompt Can Do

Common prompt jobs include:

  • rewrite rough dictation into polished text
  • translate copied text
  • summarize a long passage
  • format messy notes into bullets or tables
  • refactor selected code
  • extract tasks from a message
  • explain an image or screenshot with a vision-capable model

File-Based Prompts

MachinesFluent treats prompt files as reusable commands. A simple prompt file can be plain text:

Rewrite the clipboard text into clear, concise English.
Preserve the meaning.
Remove filler.
Keep technical terms intact.

Because prompts are files, they are easy to back up, duplicate, rename, and edit.

Prompt Controls

ControlWhat it does
Active promptThe prompt used by the default AI hotkey.

Provider overrideRoute a specific prompt to a specific provider or model.
Preview modeShow the AI response before pasting it into another app.
Auto-pasteInsert the result into the active app after processing.

Start with a few prompts that you will use every day:

  1. Clean up dictated text.
  2. Translate to your main second language.
  3. Summarize selected text.
  4. Turn rough notes into action items.
  5. Explain copied code.

Prompt Design Tips

  • Keep one prompt focused on one job.
  • Tell the model what to preserve.
  • Specify the output format when it matters.
  • Use provider overrides for prompts that need stronger or cheaper models.
  • Test with preview mode before enabling auto-paste.
  • Never store API keys, passwords, tokens, or private credentials in prompt files.
