What is a Quick Command
Quick Commands are predetermined instructions that can be sent to the Large Language Model (LLM) to perform specific actions. It provides fast and efficient ways to contextualize the LLM. They are very user-friendly and can be accessed by simply right-clicking with your mouse.
You can easily create Quick Commands via StackSpot AI Portal and execute them in your IDE or via API. For example, you can create a quick command to:
- Translate Portuguese to English.
- Searches for a security breach in the code according to your company's policies and add it to your organization's Workspace.
