Settings are small but high leverage: the wrong language defaults produce unusable drafts; the wrong mode hides tools you need—or shows complexity you will not use.
Language and locale
Set generation language to match your audience’s primary language, not only your UI preference. If you publish bilingually, note which series uses which language in series notes or contexts so prompts stay consistent.
UI language may differ from generation language—verify both.
Regional spelling and date formats matter for global audiences—state preferences in presets if needed.
Rules and setup
Your Channel Brain (voice, audience, rules) lives under Settings → Channel Brain; reusable hooks, structures, guidance and styles live under Settings → Playbook. Both are available to every user.
Credits and usage
If your deployment shows credits in the header or settings, glance before long sessions. Teach collaborators what a “heavy” action looks like (full rewrites, huge pastes) versus light edits.
Account hygiene
Use a stable email you control—recovery and verification depend on it.
Keep display name aligned with how collaborators find you.
Sign out on shared machines; sessions may persist longer than you expect.
Accessibility and ergonomics
If you script for hours, adjust font zoom at the OS level, use breaks, and prefer outlines before marathon generations—fatigue causes bad prompts.
