Okay, so here’s the thing. You’ve probably got like 200 prompts in your library by now. And if you’re being honest, you use maybe 20 of them regularly. The rest? They’re just… there. Taking up space. Making it harder to find the ones you actually need.
That’s basically what Migi 1.1 fixes. I added favorites so you can just star the prompts you use all the time, and I made it so you can export and share your best stuff. Plus a bunch of other improvements that just make everything feel smoother.
Let me walk you through it.
Favorites - Because Not All Prompts Are Equal
Searching works great when you know what you’re looking for. But sometimes you just want that client proposal template you use every single morning, you know? You don’t want to type keywords and scan through results. You just want it right there.
That’s what favorites are for.
There’s a little star button next to each prompt now. Click it, and boom - that prompt shows up in your favorites view. It’s basically your greatest hits collection. The prompts you actually use, separated from all the ones you created once and forgot about.
Here’s the thing - most people follow the 80/20 rule without even realizing it. Twenty percent of your prompts handle eighty percent of your work. Favorites just makes that twenty percent way easier to get to.
When Favorites Are Useful
Your daily routine stuff - Morning standup. Client updates. Weekly review. The templates you reach for every single day.
Client-specific templates - Proposal formats for different industries. Custom deliverable structures. Billing summaries with your usual variables already set up.
Code stuff - API documentation generators. Code review checklists. Architecture decision templates. The things that shape how you build.
The nice part is favorites doesn’t replace search. You can still search for everything. But when you want quick access to your go-to prompts, they’re right there. No thinking required.
Import and Export - Share Your Best Work
So you spent months building the perfect content strategy template. You’ve tweaked it, tested it, refined it. It’s worth actual money to your clients. And right now, it only exists on your Mac.
What if your team needs to use the same template so everyone’s work looks consistent? What if you want to share your best prompts with a client as part of your deliverable? What if you’ve built something really good and want to give it to the community?
That’s what import/export solves.
Version 1.1 lets you export your prompts as files. Individual prompts, whole folders, whatever. The export includes everything - the folder structure, the tags, the variables, all of it. Then anyone can import those files into their Migi and start using them immediately.
Real Ways People Use This
Sharing with your team - Export your client proposal collection, send the file to your team. They import it into their Migi, and now everyone’s using the same templates. Consistency across the board.
Giving value to clients - Package up industry-specific templates as part of your deliverables. Marketing clients get your content strategy templates. Dev clients get your documentation frameworks. It’s extra value that costs you nothing to give.
Contributing to the community - Built a killer set of code documentation prompts? Export them and share them online. Other developers can import and use them right away.
The point is your prompts have value. They shouldn’t be trapped in one app on one computer. Now you can actually share the good stuff you’ve built.
Autocomplete That Actually Helps
The old autocomplete worked, but it was kind of… clunky. There was this delay where you’d type something and then wait for the suggestions to show up. And the suggestions would pop up right over the line you were editing, blocking your view. It was functional, but annoying.
Version 1.1 makes it way better.
First, it’s fast now. Like really fast. 50 milliseconds instead of 350. That means you type {{user and the suggestions show up instantly. No waiting, no interrupting your flow.
Second, the suggestions show up below your cursor now, not on top of it. So you can actually see what you’re typing.
And I made the whole thing look cleaner - smaller, tighter design that just gets out of your way. Monospaced font so everything lines up nicely, subtle shadows, compact size.
What Changed
- 50ms response time - Basically instant. Type and the suggestions appear.
- Better positioning - Shows up below your cursor, follows as you type, never blocks your view.
- Cleaner design - Monospaced font, subtle shadows, just the info you need.
The whole point is keeping you in flow. Type, see suggestions instantly, keep going. No pauses, no interruptions.
Keyboard Navigation - For People Who Hate Using the Mouse
The mouse is fine for exploring and discovering stuff. But when you’re doing the same thing over and over, keyboard shortcuts are so much faster. Your fingers learn the pattern and it just becomes automatic.
Version 1.1 makes keyboard navigation work everywhere now.
Left arrow opens the sidebar and focuses the folder list. One key press to see where you are.
Tab and Shift+Tab cycle between the folder list and the editor. No mouse needed to switch focus.
Cmd+R runs the current prompt. Same pattern as Cmd+S for saving - it just makes sense.
I also made everything load asynchronously so the interface never freezes while it’s grabbing data. Arrow keys between prompts only load what you actually move to, not everything in advance. It’s just snappier.
Example Workflow
Press ⌥Space to open Migi. Arrow down to your prompt. Tab to the editor if you need to change something. Cmd+S to save. Cmd+R to run it and copy the result. Done. Never touched the mouse.
Everything Else
Token counting - Shows tokens instead of characters in Prompt Studio. Tokens are what AI models actually use, so it’s a more useful estimate than character count.
Better menu bar - The menu bar popover shows your recent prompts and favorites now. If you like using the menu bar instead of the floating window, this makes it way more useful.
Permission help - Added an “I’ve already done this” option for accessibility permissions. Plus help docs for removing and re-adding permissions if macOS gets confused.
Bug fixes - Fixed font inconsistencies, focus ring display, scrollbar jumping, tag text cutoff, a bunch of other annoying little things.
Software That Gets Better
Most software just keeps adding more features. More buttons, more options, more complexity. The idea is more equals better.
Version 1.1 is different. The core stuff is the same - organize prompts, search fast, fill variables, copy results. What changed is how smooth it feels. Faster autocomplete. Full keyboard support. Explicit favorites. Portable collections.
I didn’t add a bunch of flashy stuff. I just made the existing stuff work better. Less friction, same functionality.
