Why Use Commands?
Many analyses follow the same pattern:- Preparing for a QBR with a specific account
- Running weekly portfolio health checks
- Assessing churn risk for renewal accounts
- Generating onboarding status reports
Creating a Command
- Click Commands in the sidebar
- Click New Command
- Give your Command a name (e.g., “QBR Prep”)
- Write the prompt you want to reuse
- Add any variables for dynamic content (optional)
- Click Save
Using Variables
Variables let you customize a Command each time you run it. Wrap variable names in double curly braces:account_name before executing.
Running a Command
- Click Commands in the sidebar
- Find the Command you want to run
- Click Run
- Fill in any variables if prompted
- Humm creates a new thread with the Command’s prompt

Sharing Commands
Commands can be personal or shared with your team:- Personal Commands — Only you can see and run them
- Team Commands — Anyone on your team can use them
Editing and Deleting Commands
Open any Command to edit its name, prompt, or variables. Changes apply immediately—the next time anyone runs the Command, they’ll get the updated version. To delete a Command, open it and click Delete. Deleted Commands can’t be recovered, so make sure you don’t need it anymore.Tips for Effective Commands
Be detailed in your prompts
Be detailed in your prompts
Commands work best when the prompt is specific. Include exactly what sections, metrics, and format you want in the output.
Use clear variable names
Use clear variable names
Name variables descriptively:
{{account_name}} is clearer than {{x}}. This helps when running the Command later.Test before sharing
Test before sharing
Run your Command a few times with different inputs to make sure it produces good results before sharing with your team.

If you asked a great question in a thread and want to reuse it, copy the prompt into a new Command. You already know it works.
