Settings reference
Updated for SystemSculpt 6.18 ·
Open Settings → SystemSculpt AI, or run Open AI settings. Use Search settings to find a control. Most text fields save a moment after you stop typing or when focus leaves the field; directory fields save when focus leaves, when you pick a folder or when Settings closes. Do not assume every keystroke is an immediately saved setting.
Account
Choose Sign in or Sign up, or activate a license key, inspect Credits, and open Manage account for website billing. Deactivate clears local account/license state; it is not subscription cancellation. Billing and licenses explains the difference.
Chat
Choose chat backend/native controls and preferences such as Default chat tag, Default chat font size and Reduce chat motion. The current conversation's backend/mode also appears in its run line. Choose your AI explains native settings versus hosted modes.
Workflow
Set microphone/recorder, Audio Processor defaults and transcript behavior. Controls include Transcribe automatically, Keep source audio, Insert transcript at origin, Default file format, Clean transcript output, Clean up transcript, Cleanup instructions and Send after dictation. Audio transcription explains what each workflow saves.
Knowledge
Enable Similar notes, inspect Index status, choose exclusions and rebuild only when needed. Semantic search has the setup and recovery steps.


Workspace
Configure directories and settings-backup recovery. Review Directory health and Restore from backup when needed. iOS capture controls appear once your account has used the iOS app; use iOS meetings folder to choose where imported meeting captures are stored. These controls are within Workspace, not a separate Phone captures tab.
Studio
Set Projects folder, Run retention and Artifact retention (mb). These existing controls govern project/run assets; do not confuse them with chat permission modes or hosted account balance.
Advanced
Advanced includes Relative line numbers, diagnostics and Reset to factory settings. Reset is a destructive customization reset, not the first step for a missing CLI or failed request. Troubleshooting describes targeted checks and diagnostic snapshots.
