Recipes — save and reapply layouts
A recipe freezes your current setup — the panes you have open, where they sit, how they look — into a card you can reapply later. Build your ideal “deep work” or “streaming” arrangement once and get it back on demand.
Saving a recipe
Section titled “Saving a recipe”- Arrange the workspace the way you like it.
- Say save recipe in the command bar (or use the Save as recipe command) and give it a title and description.
- A recipe card pane appears; it lists the captured panes as steps.
Applying one
Section titled “Applying one”Open the recipe card and apply it — the captured panes open in their saved positions with their saved styling. Your current panes stay put; a recipe adds its layout rather than wiping the canvas.
Starter recipes
Section titled “Starter recipes”Mastery HQ ships six ready-made domain workspaces — open the picker from Tools (wrench) → Recipes, or say “starter recipes” (or a name like “open the blog studio”):
- Blog Studio — a Writer, an agent, and the browser for drafting and polishing an article.
- Research Desk — the browser plus a Writer for a synthesized brief.
- App Factory — an agent, a terminal, a Kanban board, and a device preview.
- Marketing Studio — a copy Writer, a content-calendar board, an agent, and the browser.
- Data Lab — an agent and its terminal sandbox for analysis, plus a report Writer.
- Video Studio — a script Writer, an agent, the Music pane, and the browser.
Each opens its panes prewired and seeds the Writer with the domain’s conventions and a few first commands. Like any recipe, it adds to your current canvas rather than wiping it.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- Recipe cards are panes too: they persist in the workspace, move, and resize like everything else.
- Recipes capture pane content data (a browser pane’s URL, a kanban board’s cards) but not live agent conversations.
- For switching between whole environments rather than layouts, use multiple workspaces instead.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly does a recipe capture?
Every open pane's kind, title, position, size, styling, and content data — enough to rebuild the setup exactly. It does not capture agent conversations; reapplied agent panes start fresh.
