What Inkstone imports from SillyTavern presets and where manual review still matters.

SillyTavern Import

We accept your preset baggage.

SillyTavern is the most popular AI roleplay desktop app. Inkstone can import its system prompt presets, but they need a translation layer — the converter turns them into Custom system prompts you can use and edit.

1

Reads all prompt blocks from the file

2

Resolves SillyTavern's variable macros ({{setvar}}, {{getvar}})

3

Strips structural markers and metadata

4

Sorts blocks into pre-history (opening) and post-history (closing)

5

Combines into a clean Custom system prompt

Always read the resulting prompt after import. The converter does its best, but complex presets may need manual tweaking.

That's the whole machine. Each system is designed to stay out of your way when you don't need it and be there when you do.
