By following these instructions, you can enhance your interactions with AI chatbots and generate tailored responses based on your specific needs.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure that you have:
The Prompt Builder extension is installed in your Chrome browser.
At least one custom prompt is created and saved in your library.
Instructions
Step 1: Open Your Desired AI Chatbot
Launch the AI chatbot you wish to use, such as ChatGPT, Claude, or any other supported platform.
The Prompt Builder currently supports the following AI chatbots:
ChatGPT
Claude
Google Gemini
Perplexity
Microsoft Copilot

Pi AI
Mistral
Poe
Meta
Step 2: Open the Prompt Builder
Click on the Prompt Builder icon in your Chrome toolbar to open the extension.
Step 3: Find and Select a Prompt
Browse through your saved prompts in the "My Prompts" section.
Click on the prompt you want to use, which will open the prompt composer.
Step 4: Fill in Variable Input Fields (if applicable)
If your selected prompt includes variable input fields, you will need to fill in at least the required fields for the copy and insert button to appear.
Complete the necessary fields:
Text Field: Enter short texts like names or titles.
Textarea Field: Add larger amounts of text based on character limits.
Checkboxes: Select multiple options at once.
Radio Buttons: Choose only one option from a list.
Example: If your prompt is for a blog outline, fill in the blog topic and tone of voice.
Step 5: Copy and Insert Your Prompt
After filling in the required fields, click the "Copy and Insert" button. This will copy the prompt along with any filled variables into your clipboard.
Step 6: Paste into the AI Chatbot (Optional)
For non-supported AI chatbots, navigate back to your AI chatbot interface and paste the copied prompt into the chat input field. You can do this by right-clicking and selecting "Paste" or using keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+V for Windows or Command+V for Mac).
Step 7: Generate Content
Press Enter or click Send in the AI chatbot to generate content based on your custom prompt.
Tips and Warnings
Tip: Always double-check that you have filled in all required fields before clicking “Copy and Insert” to ensure accurate results.
Warning: If the insert feature does not work, you can manually paste the prompt since it is already copied to your clipboard.
Troubleshooting/FAQs
Q: What if my prompt doesn't insert correctly?
A: Ensure that all required fields are filled out and you're using it on a supported chatbot. If issues persist, try pasting the prompt manually to the AI chatbot input field.
Q: Can I edit my prompts after inserting them into the chatbot?
A: Yes! You can modify your pasted prompt directly within the AI chatbot interface after it has been inserted.
