Snippets

Snippets are reusable prompts. Press / in the message box (or click Insert snippet) and pick one; the snippet is inserted as a chip, and you can add your own text after it.

Built-in snippets

Snippet	What it asks the agent
Rephrase	Rewrite the text with the same meaning.
Fix spelling and grammar	Correct the text without changing its style.
Summarize	A short summary of the text.
Improve text	Clearer, better-structured text.
Improve writing	Better style and flow.
Translate to	Translate into the language you pick.
Change tone	Rewrite with the tone you pick.

Some snippets have a variable shown as a second chip:

• Translate to asks for a language. Type to search the list.

Click the chip to change the value, or the × to remove the snippet.

What text the snippet applies to

• In the Chrome extension side panel or the add-on sidebar, the snippet applies to the text selected in the document, the spreadsheet range or the slide. The selection is shown above the message box; remove it with the ×.
• Otherwise it applies to the text you type after the snippet, or to the previous answer.

Tip: in Google Docs, the AI bar at the bottom of the page has the most common snippets as one-click chips.
