Snippets are shortcuts for things you write repeatedly or that you want to standardize.

To manage snippets for the your current space, open Kitemaker Command (cmd/ctrl+k) and find “Manage snippets”. Alternatively, select the ⚙️ icon next to a space in the sidebar and select “Manage snippets”. From the “Manage snippets” screen, you can create, edit, and delete snippets:

This hotkey is context-aware, so if you are inside a description or comment, it’ll paste the content where you are. If you are on a board, the shortcut will create a new work item or theme with the snippet’s content in the description.
