Create Task
1. Describe Your Task in One Sentence
Tencent WorkBuddy's core strength is understanding natural language. Just describe what you need in one sentence, and it will autonomously plan and execute.
Examples:
- "Generate an analysis report with charts from this sales data"
- "Organize images in the Downloads folder by date"
- "Create a PPT from these meeting notes"
- "Analyze this resume and extract key info into a spreadsheet"
- "Research 2024 AI industry trends and write a report"
2. Select Working Directory
You can specify a working directory for your task:
- Click Select Folder at the bottom-right of the input box to choose a directory
- Tencent WorkBuddy will read and process files based on that directory
- Or start directly — Tencent WorkBuddy will generate results in the default directory
3. Add Context
When creating a task, you can supplement context to help Tencent WorkBuddy understand your needs faster:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Reference Context | Use @ to reference files, documents, rules, etc. |
| Paste Screenshot | Use Ctrl/Cmd + V to paste clipboard images directly |
| Upload Files | Click the upload button or drag files into the input box |
| Add Details | Clarify goals, scope, constraints, and expected output in the task description |
Recommended context to include:
- Goal: What content to generate or what files to process
- Input: Data to analyze or reference documents
- Output format: Word, Excel, PPT, or other formats
- Constraints: Style requirements, word limits, deadlines, etc.
