GPT Configuration: Fine-Tuning Your Copilot's Intelligence

The GPT Configuration settings within the Manage Portal are where you transition from a standard search-and-summarize AI to a specialized industrial assistant. This section allows authors to define the "rules of engagement" for the AI, enabling it to perform complex actions, query structured data, and format responses with machine-level precision.

By configuring Prompts, Agents, and Scripts, you transform your copilot from a passive document reader into an active participant in your technical workflows.

The Three Pillars of Configuration

To optimize your copilot, you will work with three primary layers of intelligence:

1. Prompts: The "House Rules"

Prompts are persistent instructions that guide how the GPT engine generates results. They act as the overarching logic for every interaction.

Behavior Control: Use prompts to dictate tone, language, and safety priorities.
Formatting Standards: Force the AI to always use Markdown tables for specifications or lead with bolded warnings for high-voltage procedures.
Instructional Grounding: Set global constraints, such as "Always display measurements in Metric" or "Never suggest a bypass for safety interlocks."

2. GPT Agents: The "Specialists"

While standard GPT handles text, Agents are designed to handle structured data and actions. They are the "specialists" called upon when a user needs more than just a manual excerpt.

Data Querying: Use agents to pull live values from parts lists, phone directories, or torque tables stored in Excel.
Action-Oriented: Agents bridge the gap between "knowing" and "doing," allowing the copilot to interact with external databases or specialized logic files.

3. Scripts: The Bridge to Live Data

Scripts are custom pieces of code or logic created by authors to perform specific, targeted activities that a standard AI cannot do on its own.

Real-Time Retrieval: Scripts can crawl online tables or access external portals to obtain daily-changing system passwords or live telemetry.
Custom Logic: They enable the copilot to follow strict, non-linear reasoning paths that are unique to your specific organization or site environment.

Why Configuration Matters

Without proper configuration, an AI might provide a technically correct answer that is operationally useless (e.g., providing an answer in the wrong units or for the wrong firmware version).

By mastering these three configuration tools, you ensure that every response is:

Filtered: Only relevant data reaches the technician.
Grounded: The AI respects your "Gold Standard" procedures.
Actionable: The user gets the exact part number, password, or step they need to finish the job.
