# Glossary

> Learn the Babbily terms you will see across chat, memory, tools, connectors, teams, and billing.

Use this glossary when a Babbily setting, guide, or support reply uses a term you want to understand.

## Everyday terms

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Chat">
    A conversation with Babbily. Chats can include messages, files, tools, generated media, citations, and follow-up questions.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Model">
    The AI system selected for a reply. Models can differ in speed, reasoning, file support, media support, context size, and API usage budget impact.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Context window">
    The amount of recent conversation, file content, and tool output the selected model can consider for one reply. Long chats can fill the context window, and Babbily may compact older context so the thread can continue.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Library">
    The place to find saved work such as threads, images, audio, videos, and translations. Available item actions can include reopen, rename, share, download, or delete.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Workspace">
    A Personal or team context that keeps chats, Saved Prompts, Library items, memory, and plan context organized. The workspace pill shows where you are working.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Temporary Chat">
    A chat mode for conversations you do not want saved in normal history or Library. Temporary chats do not use or update Babbily memory, and exiting deletes the temporary conversation.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Personalization

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Memory Profile">
    A readable view of saved context Babbily may use to personalize future replies. You can review it in **Settings > Memory**.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Memory citation">
    A source or note that helps explain saved memory. You can review memory citations from **Settings > Memory** and remove eligible items.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Shared team memory">
    An owner-controlled team setting that lets useful facts from team-workspace chats become reusable context for current team members. It does not share anyone's personal Memory Profile.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Saved Prompts">
    Reusable assistants you create for repeatable work. A Saved Prompt can include a name, description, instructions, model choice, and supported allowed capabilities for that model.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Skills">
    Reusable instructions that help Babbily follow a workflow. You can turn skills on or off, search verified skills, add markdown skills, and trigger skills with slash commands.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Tools and apps

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Tool">
    A capability Babbily can use beyond a model-only reply, such as web search, deep research, QR codes, weather, image generation, video generation, or connected-app work.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Auto, Manual, and Off">
    Tool modes in the composer. **Auto** lets Babbily choose available tools, **Manual** lets you pick one, and **Off** keeps the reply model-only.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Connector">
    A connected app Babbily can use after you authorize access, such as Gmail, Google Drive, Slack, GitHub, Notion, Outlook, Stripe, or other supported apps.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Approval-required action">
    A connector action that asks for your confirmation before it runs. Review sends, updates, workflow changes, and billing or customer-data actions before approving them.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Account and billing

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="API usage budget">

    The person who manages a team workspace, invitations, member removal, plan changes, billing, and team usage controls where available.
