Just ask — the prompt bar is your starting point

When you open a Project, the home screen shows the Project’s name and a single prompt bar in the center with the placeholder “What can I help you accomplish?” You don’t need to create a task first — type your question and send it to begin a new conversation.

​
Start a conversation

A question typed in the prompt bar with the Submit arrow highlighted
  1. Click into the prompt bar. The placeholder reads “What can I help you accomplish?”
  2. Type your question or request.
  3. Click the Submit button — the arrow icon at the end of the prompt bar — or press Enter to send.
  4. Chief replies in a new task thread. Keep typing in the same bar to continue the conversation.
Pro-Tip: Not sure what to ask? Type / in the prompt bar to open Chief templates and your Saved Prompts, then type a few words to filter the list.

​
Use a prompt template

The Prompt Launchpad gallery of ready-made prompts on the home screen
  1. Type / in the prompt bar.
  2. Search for and select a Chief template or Saved Prompt. Its content loads into the prompt bar.
  3. Fill any variables, edit the text if needed, then click Submit.
Good to Know: Selecting a template fills the prompt bar but does not send automatically. To reuse your own version later, save it as a Saved Prompt.

FAQ

That usually means you’re offline — Chief shows “Send when online” on the submit button and sends your message once your connection returns. It can also mean your prompt is over the length limit; shorten it and try again.
Enter-key behavior is configurable. Depending on your setting, Enter either sends the message or makes a new line. You can change this behavior in the Command Center settings if it’s not doing what you expect.
Chief draws on the files included in the task’s scope. Upload documents to your Library and include them so answers are grounded in your own data rather than general knowledge.
