Pods Now Apply Your AGENTS.md to Every Conversation

🎯 What is it?

Pod editors can now manage an AGENTS.md file directly from their Pod settings. Once set, Dust automatically adds its content to the system prompt of every conversation that happens within that Pod, so your guidelines and workflows are always in effect.

💡 Why is it useful?

Previously, keeping behavior consistent across multiple conversations often meant copy-pasting the same instructions over and over. This feature lets you define your Pod-level rules and workflows once, in a single place, and have them applied everywhere automatically—ensuring consistency across every run without the manual overhead.

⚙ How does it work?

Editors update the AGENTS.md file from the Pod settings, and Dust injects it into the system prompt for all conversations in that Pod. Oversized files are now handled more safely, so large instruction sets won't cause issues.

✨ Concrete Use Cases

Here's how you could use it:

• Consistent tone and formatting: Define how agents should respond (language, style, structure) so every conversation in the Pod follows the same standards.

• Shared workflows and guardrails: Document the steps, do's and don'ts, or compliance rules your team must follow, and have them automatically enforced in each conversation.

📈 Benefits for you

You save time by setting your rules once instead of repeating them, you reduce the risk of inconsistent behavior across conversations, and you gain a single, easy-to-maintain source of truth for how your Pod should operate.

🚀 How to access it?

This is available to all Pod users for Pod conversations—no feature flag required. Pod editors can simply open their Pod settings and edit the AGENTS.md file to get started.
