Selection Prompt

Pro

The fastest path from "this text is wrong" to "this text is right".

  1. Highlight text in a field on any page.
  2. Open the Spotlight (Ctrl+Shift+T on a Mac, Ctrl+Shift+E elsewhere) and pick the prompt. Typing its abbreviation won't run it, because typing would replace what you selected.
  3. The result replaces your selection.
Selected we should probably maybe consider possibly moving the meeting

After "Rewrite concisely" Let's move the meeting.

The starter prompts

TypeFire seeds a Selection Prompts collection on first launch:

Prompt Abbreviation Does
Rewrite concisely bsrewrite Tightens without changing meaning
Fix grammar bsfix Corrects errors, leaves your wording
Translate to English bsen Preserves tone and formatting
Explain code bsexplain Two or three sentences for a developer
Summarize in 3 bullets bssum Exactly three bullets
Formal tone sformal Business correspondence register
Friendly tone bsfriendly Warm and conversational
Convert to bullet list bsbullets One idea per bullet

These are ordinary snippets. Edit them, delete them, or write your own.

Writing your own

A selection prompt is a snippet whose body uses {{selection}} where the highlighted text should go:

Rewrite the following as a changelog entry. One line, past tense,
no marketing language. Output only the line.

{{selection}}

Save it into the Selection Prompts collection, then run it from the Spotlight with text selected.

💡

Be explicit about output. Models like to add preamble. Ending the prompt with "Output ONLY the rewritten text" is why the starters replace your selection cleanly instead of pasting "Sure! Here's a revised version:".
