# How do I set my manuscript title, description, and PubliAgent instructions?

# How do I set my manuscript title, description, and PubliAgent instructions?
Alongside your Formatting settings, the editor's settings menu also has a **Manuscript** tab and a **PubliAgent** tab, where you can set your book's title and description, and give PubliAgent instructions for how it should write and refine text on your behalf.

## Manuscript settings
Open the **Manuscript** tab to set:
* **Title** — your book's working title
* **Description** — a short manuscript description
Click **Save** to apply your changes.

## Why add a manuscript description?
Your manuscript description gives PubliAgent a quick brief about your book, so its **Write** and **Refine** tools can stay on track and produce suggestions that fit your book, rather than generic text.

## PubliAgent settings
Open the **PubliAgent** tab to add **Manuscript-wide instructions**. Use this field to describe your voice, tone, and any do's and don'ts you want PubliAgent to follow whenever it helps you write or refine text in this manuscript.
For example, you might note a preferred point of view, a tone you want to avoid, or specific words or phrases you don't want PubliAgent to use.
Click **Save** to apply your instructions.

## How do these settings affect PubliAgent?
Once saved, your manuscript description and manuscript-wide instructions apply across the whole book, so you don't need to repeat your preferences every time you use a PubliAgent tool. If PubliAgent's suggestions don't match what you had in mind, revisit these settings and refine your instructions.
