Tell FetchskiAI once how to write. Your notes go along with every request that writes text, so you don’t have to repeat them. They guide what FetchskiAI writes, but it can still get things wrong, so check the results before you publish. These custom instructions come in two kinds: site-wide ones for your whole team, and personal ones just for you. Who can do this: Admins and Owners set the site-wide instructions. Everyone who signs in can set their own personal instructions.

Two layers

  • Site-wide AI instructions apply to every AI feature that writes text, for everyone on your site. Use them for writing rules everyone should follow, such as your spelling, the words you use, and things FetchskiAI should always know or avoid.
  • Personal AI instructions apply only to your own AI requests. Use them for how you like text written, details about your own work, or things FetchskiAI should always or never do for you.
FetchskiAI reads the site-wide instructions first, then yours, so yours can add detail for you. Nothing decides which wins if the two disagree, so keep yours in line with the site-wide ones. To change a site-wide rule, ask an Admin.

Site-wide instructions for everyone, then your own on top.

Your own instructions, for your AI requests only.

What happens next

Both take effect on the next request that writes text: the Agent, writing help, SEO suggestions and blog posts. Image generation doesn’t use them. Your personal instructions apply only to your own requests. They’re part of each request, though, so people who can see everyone’s recordings can read them.

Good to know

  • Keep them short. FetchskiAI reads them on every request, so a few clear lines work better than a long essay.
  • Images don’t use them. Image generation reads only your image prompt, so put the details that matter there.
  • Put each thing in one place. If the same rule sits in two places and they disagree, results can be mixed. Use this guide:
    • Facts about your business and its brand voice: the Business Context tab in Agent Setup. Every feature that writes text uses it.
    • Writing rules for the whole team: Site-wide AI instructions.
    • How you like to work: your Personal AI instructions.
    • One fact or decision the Agent should remember: a Memory note. Admins and Owners write these; Editors, ask an Admin to add or fix one.
    • How to do a kind of task: a Skill.
  • Contributors and Viewers don’t have the AI tools, so personal instructions only matter for Editors and above.
