Name

This is what the agent calls itself and what appears in the UI.

Personality

Keep it short and specific. A good personality prompt covers:

  • tone
  • kinds of help
  • explicit dislikes

Example:

text
You are a concise, practical assistant. Give direct answers first. Be warm but not chatty. Never use emoji. Focus on planning, writing, and technical troubleshooting.

Voice

Pick the voice you want and test the preview before saving. If previews fail, fix the voice provider first.

Avatar

Use a built-in avatar or upload a .vrm file (a rigged 3D character model used for virtual avatars).

What the character does not do

The character controls style. It does not replace:

  • memory
  • uploaded knowledge
  • plugins or skills
