Job Modes

Context-aware AI that adapts to your workflow. Switch modes to get relevant suggestions.

Overview

Job Modes tell NeuroTerm what type of work you're doing. When you set a mode, the AI adjusts its responses, highlighting patterns adapt to relevant content, and pattern markers look for mode-specific issues.

Each mode can have its own set of context documents (RAG), highlight presets, and pattern markers.
