Quick Phrases

Quick Phrase is a set ofpreset conversation templatesthat can be invoked with one click from the shortcut menu in the chat box, avoiding repeated prompt input.

The phrases are divided into two types:

• Global phrasescan be invoked in any assistant/chat
• Assistant phrases: take effect only under the assistant they belong to, suitable for pairing a specific role with a dedicated template

The two mechanisms are independent:

• ${name}: used only for quick phrases,user-defined, manually filled at runtime
• {{date}} etc.: used only for assistant / Agent system prompts,automatically replaced by the system
