With Custom Instructions, you can customize the Chat replies length, style, language, and anything else to match your specific preferences. For excample:

  • Always include a step-by-step explanation after generating code.

  • Always include detailed in-line comments along with any code generated.

  • Always use Tailwind CSS for responsive styling (or any other framework or library).

  • Write comments and explanations in italian (or any other language).

By default, Double comes pre-loaded with 4 different instructions: No Yapping (Default), Exploration, chatgpt.com Original Prompt, and claude.ai Original Prompt.

Getting Started

You can choose out of these 4 default instructions, edit them, or create your own custom instructions from scratch as follows:

1

Where to find Custom Instructions

Click on the Custom Instructions icon at the top of the Chat sidebar to go into the Custom Instructions menu.

2

Custom Instructions Menu

Here you’ll be able to see the current selected Instruction (highlighted by a orange border), your library of instructions, delete or edit any existing instructions, and create a new instruction.

3

Creating an Instruction

To create a Custom Instruction, all you need is a Title, and an Instruction written in natural language explaining the desired behavior.

This is akin to a System Prompt, or a Custom Instruction in ChatGPT, which you can import into Double by copy-pasting it to the box above.
