Getting Started Privately
Initial Setup
- Type
/model
to pick a model that suits your needs - Enter the newly created private active Thread (If no System Prompt was entered previously, the thread name will be a numerical string)
- Type
/
to access media generation models and help commands:text-to-video
text-to-image
image-to-text
- Prompt the model with your request
Understanding Private Threads
- Private thread creation messages are ephemeral (only visible to the user creating the ModelChat thread)
- Your active threads can be found by checking model-chat
- The channel menu will show a blinking dot as model-chat threads are private by default
- Access channel names under active threads via right-click (context menu)
- Additional users must be invited using the @ symbol once the model loads in the channel
System Prompts
Select System Prompt for text/vision
models and type the system_prompt
to define the model’s purpose and/or Role. This action will name the thread. Optional
Media Generation Guidelines
Image and Video Input
We currently support the following multimodal models: Nova Lite/Pro, Reels & Canvas, Claude Sonnet, Haiku 3 & Llama 11b/90b
Image and Video Input
For Nova Lite/Pro (video-to-text):
- First, upload the video
- Provide a brief description of the video content on the prompt
- Prompt the model with the desired output
For Reels (text-to-video):
- Use
/text-to-video
to generate 6 seconds of video - Use
/image-to-video
to convert images to videos - Videos might take 5-6 minutes to generate
For Canvas (text-to-image):
- Use
/text-to-image
to generate images from text descriptions - Depending on the amount of Images, generations might take 1-2 minutes to generate
For Claude and Llama (multimodal vision models):
- First, upload the image
- Provide a brief description of the image content on the prompt
- Prompt the model with the desired output
Character Limits
- Image generation: Maximum 1024 characters
- Video generation: Maximum 512 characters
Model-Specific Notes
- For video understanding, use Nova Lite or Nova Pro Models
- For media generation workflows, we recommend pre-prompting a multimodal model (Claude, Llama) with image or text context
