Train Korey to Write and Work Your Way

With Korey's writing style and memory settings, you can control everything from how concise Korey's responses are to teaching it custom commands that trigger entire workflows.

‍

For example, what if you could teach Korey a magic word that automatically creates a Story, assigns it to you, spins up a Cursor session, and creates an initial PR?

‍

You can. And it takes about 30 seconds to set up.

‍

Set Your Preferred Writing Style

Want shorter responses? Prefer a more formal tone? You can adjust 2 key settings:

‍

Level of Detail lets you choose between Concise, Standard, or Descriptive responses. If you want things short and to the point, change to Concise. If you want all the details with longer explanations, go Descriptive.

‍

Tone gives you Casual, Neutral, or Formal options. Pick what matches your team's communication style.

‍

These settings live under Writing Style in your Korey preferences, and they apply across all your conversations.

Custom Output Formats Go Beyond Tone

The Output Format field lets you add custom instructions that shape how Korey responds to specific requests.

‍

Some examples:

• Acceptance Criteria required
• Avoid personas (no "as a user")
• Prefer measurable outcomes when possible

But you can go way deeper than formatting preferences.

‍

Memories

You can also tell Korey to remember something. Korey is designed to remember your preferences, context, and workflows across conversations. You can tell this to Korey contextually during a conversation or access in Settings > Memories.

‍

You can save memories for things like your time zone, preferred language, or how you like Stories formatted. Just ask Korey to remember something: "Korey, remember that I prefer to use a 24-hour clock."

‍

Memories can also store information about your projects, team structure, or coding conventions. Anything Korey should know to work better with you.

But memories aren't just for preferences. They can trigger custom workflows.

Train Korey to Execute Custom Workflows

Here's where it gets really interesting. You can teach Korey to recognize specific keywords and automatically execute multi-step workflows.

‍

Let’s teach Korey to use a command that we’ll call LIFTOFF. When you @mention Korey in Slack and write "LIFTOFF," Korey can:

‍

1. Take the context you provided
2. Create a Shortcut Story
3. Assign it to you
4. Start a Cursor coding session
5. Have Cursor create an initial PR
6. For bug Stories, first create a test demonstrating the bug, then implement a fix

You set this up through Korey's memory settings. Just tell Korey once what you want to happen, and it synthesizes that into a reusable command.

‍

Here's the actual prompt used to train the LIFTOFF command:

Save a memory: When I write LIFTOFF I want you to take the context given to you, create a Shortcut story, assign it to me, then once the story is created I want you to automatically start a Cursor coding session and have the Cursor agent create an initial PR. If it's a bug story, I want the Cursor agent to first create a test demonstrating the bug, and then to try an implementation that fixes the bug by making the test pass.

‍

Korey stores this in Settings > Memories, where you can edit or remove saved commands anytime.

Why This Matters

Korey is built to accelerate your product engineering workflows. It's ready to be customized to help you do your work about work faster.

‍

You can create custom commands for your most common workflows. Stop repeating the same 5-step process every time you need to spin up a new feature. Just teach Korey once, give it a keyword, and let it handle the repetitive parts.
