Adding Context

You can add context as simple text snippets or supported file uploads.

Text Snippets#

Text snippets are best for focused, specific context.

To add a text snippet:

1. Click Add text in the Context tab.
2. Enter a descriptive title.
3. Add the content.
4. Click Save.

The title helps you manage your sources. The content is what the AI uses during interviews.

Best for:

• Pricing tiers and plan details
• Feature descriptions
• Company policies
• Product positioning
• Competitive differentiators
• Known issues or limitations

File Uploads#

Files are useful when you already have documentation written.

To upload a file:

1. Click Upload file in the Context tab.
2. Select a PDF or DOCX file.
3. Diaform extracts text from the file.
4. The extracted text is added to your project context.

Supported formats:

• PDF: Product docs, reports, guides, or presentations with selectable text
• DOCX: Word documents, specifications, and guides

Maximum file size: 20MB.

Editing and Updating#

Text snippets can be edited after creation.

Files cannot be edited in place. To update file content, delete the old item and upload the new version.

Deleting Items#

To remove context:

1. Click the delete icon next to the item.
2. Confirm the deletion.

Deleting an item frees up its tokens immediately.

Best Practices#

Use descriptive titles: "Enterprise Security Features" is better than "Security Stuff".

Keep entries focused: One topic per item makes context easier to maintain.

Update when things change: Remove outdated pricing, policies, or feature descriptions.

Start small: Add essential context first, then expand based on test interviews.

Review token usage: Token counts are shown in the Context tab so you can see which items use the most capacity.
