Writing assist
Bedrock can use a local LM Studio model to help write and refine text — right inside the editor and the prompt board. Nothing is sent to any external service; the model runs entirely on your machine.
Enabling Writing Assist
Assist requires LM Studio to be running with a model loaded. See AI integrations → LM Studio for setup instructions. Once configured, the ✨ Assist button activates in the editor.
In the document editor
On a selection: 1. Select any text in Source or Split mode. 2. A small action bar pops up next to it. 3. Choose an action.
On the whole document: 1. Click ✨ Assist in the editor bar (with nothing selected). 2. Bedrock sends the entire document body.
Actions
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Improve | Clarifies wording, fixes awkward phrasing, tightens structure |
| Rephrase | Rewrites with different wording while preserving meaning |
| Shorten | Trims to the essential without losing key points |
| Custom… | Enter any instruction of your own |
Custom instruction examples
"Make it more formal"— professional tone"Turn into a bulleted list"— restructure as bullet points"Add a summary at the top"— prepend a TL;DR"Translate to German"— language translation"Add examples to each point"— expand with concrete examples
Preview, then accept
The result opens in a side-by-side panel — your original on the left, the suggestion on the right:
- Edit the suggestion directly before accepting.
- Regenerate to ask the model to try again.
- Accept to apply the suggestion (replaces the selection or whole document body).
- Discard to leave the original text unchanged.
Nothing is modified until you click Accept.
On the prompt board
In a prompt card editor, the ✨ Generate menu offers the same actions plus:
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Write from title | Drafts a full prompt instruction from the card’s title |
The result replaces the card’s Instruction field.
Example: a card titled “Refactor authentication module”. Click ✨ Generate → Write from title and Bedrock drafts a detailed instruction from that title — edit it as needed, then run.
Tips
- For long documents, select just the paragraph you want to improve rather than the whole file — tighter scope gives better results.
- If Improve doesn’t help, try Rephrase — a rewrite sometimes reveals better structure than incremental improvement.
- Use Write from title on prompt cards to jumpstart prompt writing; editing a draft is almost always faster than writing from scratch.
