Prompts and presets
Save requests you use often as prompts, and save your favourite model and settings as presets.
If you ask for the same kind of thing again and again, save it once and reuse it.
- A prompt is saved text for the message box, such as your standard brief for ad copy.
- A preset is a saved model choice with its settings, such as "Claude for long reports".
A prompt saves what you ask; a preset saves which model answers and how.

Good to know
- Prompts and presets are yours unless you share them.
- For a full assistant with instructions, tools and a name of its own that others can use, build an agent instead. See Build your own agent.
- For instructions an agent should load only when they are needed, see Skills.
