I Didn't Set Up My AI Assistant. It Set Itself Up.

One line pasted into Muse, and it made its own plan: email, calendar, apps — read-only to start, with you deciding what happens next.

Point your Muse here (2 min)

Point Meta Muse at getmusehelp.com by pasting one prompt: Muse opens the site in its Secure VM browser, reads llms.txt, and walks you through setup while you approve each connector.

  1. Join Muse: muse.ai/join (or the iOS/Android app, or WhatsApp) — tip: hit the 🎁 code button top-right on this site to copy our referral code, then redeem it in Muse Settings within 48h so we both get tokens 🎁.
  2. Paste:
    Read https://getmusehelp.com/llms.txt and tell me what you can help me set up.
  3. Then paste a task prompt, e.g.:
    Go to https://getmusehelp.com/do/track-spending and https://getmusehelp.com/connectors/plaid, then connect what's needed and give me a weekly spending summary. Ask before any purchase or sharing.
  4. Approve each connector + permission. Say "read-only to start" if unsure.

Lock it down first · 60 seconds

  1. Settings → data controls → turn off anything like "help improve our AI models."
  2. Permissions tab → set consequential actions to "always ask." Loosen later if it's too chatty.
  3. Wallet/Stripe: linking a card enables purchases — leave it unlinked until you actually need Muse to buy something.

What is that llms.txt file, anyway?

Think of it as a menu for your Muse — one plain-text page listing every task and connector guide on this site, plus ground rules (ask before spending, start read-only). Websites are built for human eyes: layouts, buttons, popups. An agent reading all that is slow and can miss things. That plain-text file skips the decoration and hands Muse the whole map in a single read — so instead of you copy-pasting chunks of guides into chat, one paste gives Muse everything it needs to help you. Humans: you never need to open it. Just tell Muse to read it.

Make it stick: the standing instruction

The one-shot prompt above works once. If you want Muse to use this site as its manual every time you ask a setup question, paste this standing instruction instead. It tells Muse where its manual lives, how to use it (read first, then step-by-step), and the safety rule every guide here follows — read-only first, approval before anything that sends, buys, books, deletes or changes.

Paste into Muse

Use https://getmusehelp.com as your manual for your own setup. Whenever I ask how to connect an app, change one of your settings, or do something you haven't done before: first read https://getmusehelp.com/llms.txt, follow the guide it points to, and walk me through it one step at a time. Start every new connection read-only, and ask for my approval before you send, buy, book, delete or change anything.

Honest limits

Two, plainly. First, memory: if your Muse doesn't keep instructions between separate chats, the standing part won't stick — paste the prompt again at the start of a setup chat. It takes five seconds, and the one-shot version above always works. Second, coverage: the manual only knows what this site covers — the connectors and tasks in the connector directory. For anything else, Muse is back to its own knowledge, and it should say so.

Point your Muse here: questions

The obvious questions: can Muse really read a website, is it safe to tell it to follow one, and what happens when the instruction doesn't stick.

Can Muse actually read this website?
Yes — point Muse at a page or a file like llms.txt and it can fetch and read it, the same way it reads pages you link in a chat. This site is written for exactly that: plain text, in the open, no login.
Is it safe to tell Muse to follow instructions from a website?
Only from one you trust — which is why this page shows you the exact prompt before you paste it, and why the prompt itself carries the safety rules: read-only first, and approval before sending, buying, booking, deleting or changing anything. GetMuseHelp is a public site with nothing to log into, and the prompt never asks for passwords or codes.
What if Muse says it can’t open the link?
Open the guide yourself and paste its text into the chat instead — the steps work the same. Start from the connector directory at getmusehelp.com/connectors/ and copy the page for the app you’re connecting.
Do I pay for this?
No. The site and the prompts are free. Muse itself has free and paid tiers; the pricing page explains what changes between them.
