### Key Points
|
||||
|
||||
- **Project Rules** are automatically loaded from `.qodeassist/rules/` directory structure
|
||||
- **System Prompts** are configured independently for each feature in Settings
|
||||
- **FIM vs Non-FIM models** for code completion use different System Prompts:
|
||||
- FIM models: Direct completion prompt
|
||||
- Non-FIM models: Prompt includes response formatting instructions
|
||||
- **Quick Refactor** has its own provider/model configuration, independent from Chat
|
||||
- **Custom Instructions** provide reusable templates that can be augmented with specific details
|
||||
- **Tool Calling** is available for Chat and Quick Refactor when enabled
|
||||
|
||||
See [Project Rules Documentation](docs/project-rules.md) and [Quick Refactoring Guide](docs/quick-refactoring.md) for more details.
