Basics

Settings

Settings is where you control how Glaze looks, how you summon the agent, and how the keyboard behaves while you build. To open Settings, click the avatar menu in the sidebar and choose Settings.

The Account tab displays your profile (display name and avatar), your plan, and your credits. For more information about your account, see Manage Account.

The General tab has two sections. Appearance sets the app's theme, and the Agent section holds the agent shortcut, the keyboard behavior in Agent Chat, and your custom instructions.

Under Appearance, choose the Theme for the Glaze app:

  • Auto follows your Mac's system appearance, switching with it between light and dark.
  • Light and Dark keep Glaze in that mode regardless of your system setting.

This theme controls the Glaze app's own windows. It does not change the look of the apps you build or use from the Store.

The Agent Shortcut is a global hotkey that opens the agent from anywhere, even when Glaze isn't focused. There's no default, so it's blank until you set one.

  • Record: Click Record and press the combination you want, such as Space. Glaze saves it the moment you finish pressing the shortcut. Press Esc while recording to cancel.
  • Change or Clear: Click the shortcut to record a new combination, or click to remove it.

Once set, pressing the shortcut opens the agent and readies it for a new prompt. If the combination is already used by another app, Glaze flags it as invalid or in use, so you can pick a different one.

Send Message decides which key sends your prompt in Agent Chat:

  • Return (Default): sends the message, and inserts a newline.
  • Command Return: sends the message, and inserts a newline.

When the agent is already running and you send another message, Follow-up Behavior decides what happens to it:

  • Queue (Default): Your follow-up waits and runs after the current work finishes.
  • Steer: Your follow-up interrupts the current run and steers the agent right away.

Whichever you choose, press to do the opposite for a single message. See Iterating for when each is useful.

Custom Instructions are notes the agent includes in every session by default, such as a coding preference or a style you want across your apps. Click Custom Instructions to open the editor, write your instructions, and choose Save. They apply to new work going forward, so you don't have to repeat yourself in each prompt.

If you belong to one or more teams, each Team gets its own tab here for managing that team, and a New Team option lets you create one. See Get Started with Teams for how Glaze Teams work.
