* **Activate Tools**

You can enable tool usage which allow the AI to perform specific tasks and interact with different systems. When activated, these tools enhance the AI’s capabilities, allowing it to assist you with tasks like navigating the web, file operations, data analysis, or external API interactions.

The available tools depend on your configuration and installed tools in the Tool section.

* **Prompts Library**

Opentroy comes with an extensive list of ready-to-use prompts. Just click on the books icon and the list will appear on the right side of your app.

You can create new `custom prompts` by clicking the ➕ plus icon at the upper right corner.

* **Local AI files**

You can add your local files or folders to provide robust context to the AI.&#x20;

File formats supported: `csv, docx, json, md, pdf, txt, xlsx`.

* **Chat Settings**

You can access chat settings to adjust how the model generates text.

By adjusting these settings, you can fine-tune the balance between creativity and accuracy, depending on the nature of your project or conversation.
