Create with AI

Create with AI is a copy-and-paste workflow, not an integration. Cynario writes the instructions; you take them to whatever AI chat you already use; you bring the finished Scenario file back.

Open it from My scenarios → Create with AI. Both buttons work immediately — there is no form to fill in first, no account, no API key, and no provider to choose inside Cynario.

The three steps

1. Copy instructions. Cynario assembles the current Scenario contract — the required file shape, the return rules, a compact capability guide, and a small valid example — and puts it on your clipboard.
2. Take it to any AI. Paste it into your AI chat, describe the Scenario you want, and ask for one .cynario JSON file. Cynario is not involved in this step at all.
3. Import AI result. Come back and choose Import AI result. The file goes through the same Import check as any other file you did not write yourself, which shows you what passed or failed before anything is saved.

If the result imports cleanly, it lands in My scenarios and you can open it in the Builder and edit it like any other Scenario.

That is the whole workflow. Everything below is optional.

Where your content actually goes

Cynario does not call an AI provider, host a chat, choose a model, or upload the context it prepares. The instructions are assembled in your browser and put on your clipboard or into a file you download.

What reaches an outside service is exactly what you paste or attach there. That service is outside Cynario’s boundary: it may retain, reinterpret, or redistribute whatever it receives under its own terms. Do not paste anything you would not be comfortable handing to that service.

The returned file is treated as untrusted, exactly like a file from a stranger. Labeling the copied context as instructions versus data helps a cooperative tool follow the contract; it does not make prompt injection impossible. The Import check is the real boundary, not the wording of the prompt.

Optional: add guidance

Add guidance lets the copied instructions carry a head start. Every field is optional, and you can skip the panel entirely and describe everything in the AI chat instead.

• Guided prompts — who it is for, what they should practice, what decisions they should face, and any constraints or facts.
• One freeform request — a single description, if you would rather write it as prose.

Guidance travels as clearly separated creator input, so a cooperative tool treats it as your description of the Scenario rather than as instructions that can override the format contract.

Optional: choose what to include

Choose what to include controls the payload. The defaults are a good starting point.

Item	Default
Cynario instructions and return rules	Always included
Your guidance	On, if you wrote any
Capability guide	On
Valid example Scenario	On
Full JSON Schema	Off — it is large

Turn the full JSON Schema on if your tool accepts long context and keeps drifting from the format. Turn the example off if you are close to a context limit.

Saved Scenarios, protected content, play logs, learner responses, assets, credentials, browser data, and settings are never included, in any combination.

Optional: take it as files instead of a clipboard paste

Some tools work better with attachments than with a long paste. Download full kit produces a ZIP, and Save as folder writes the same files directly to a folder where the browser supports it.

The folder or ZIP contains a README.md entry point, the instructions, the ready-to-paste text, and a manifest — plus your guidance, the capability guide, the example, and the schema when you selected them.

Optional: check the files and fingerprints

View files and fingerprints lists every file in the prepared context with its size and SHA-256 digest, plus a combined fingerprint for the whole payload. It is there for anyone who needs to record or compare exactly what was handed to an outside tool. Nothing in the main flow depends on it.

Optional: keep guidance on this device

An open tab keeps guidance in memory. Save guidance on this device is a deliberate extra step that stores only the guidance fields, for seven days, with the expiry shown and Restore and Clear controls next to it. The assembled instructions, the copied payload, and AI results are not stored.

What a clean import does and does not mean

A result that passes Import is ready for you to review. It means the file matched the Scenario format and cleared Cynario’s checks. It does not mean the content is accurate, appropriate for your audience, safe to use against a real environment, approved by anyone, or attributable to a particular author. Read what came back and play every branch before you share it.
