Core Concepts

Five concepts to understand PromptAura: Sessions, Folders, Variables, Clipboard, Version History.

The big picture

PromptAura is built around five simple ideas. Once you understand these, everything else clicks into place.

1. Sessions — Your prompt documents

Think of a Session like a document in Google Docs or a note in Notion. It holds:

• A title (e.g., “Weekly newsletter generator”)
• The raw prompt text with {{variables}}
• Tags for filtering
• A folder location

Every time you save a prompt, you create a session. Sessions are the atomic unit — everything else organizes or enhances them.

2. Folders — Your filing system

Folders work exactly like folders on your computer:

• Nest them as deep as you want (Marketing → Q3 → Ads)
• Drag sessions between folders
• Filter the sidebar to one folder to focus

3. Variables — Fill-in-the-blanks

Wrap any word in {{double braces}} and PromptAura turns it into an input field.

Write a {{tone}} email to {{client}} about {{topic}}.

Becomes:

Fill them in, hit Run, and the resolved prompt sends to your AI model.

4. Clipboard — Your automatic safety net

Every time you run a prompt, the resolved output is auto-saved to the Clipboard (formerly “Prompt History”). No manual step needed.

• Last 500 entries retained
• Searchable by content
• One-click “Copy” or “Restore as new session”

5. Version History — Time travel for prompts

Every Save on a session creates a version. Open the history panel to:

• See a word-level diff (green additions, red deletions)
• Rollback to any previous version with one click
• Read the summary bar: “3 added, 1 removed”
