# Cancel-Keyword

Sets the answer that cancels an active prompt.

```yaml
Cancel-Keyword: cancel
```

* **Type:** String
* **Default:** `cancel`

`Cancel-Keyword` governs typed input in Chat and Anvil prompts. Matching is trimmed, color-stripped, and case-insensitive. Typed Dialog answers are checked too: for a compound dialog, entering the keyword in any input row cancels the whole session. Closing an Anvil or Player UI also cancels, and an empty Sign submission cancels. Escape is disabled for native Dialogs, so use Cancel/Exit when the player needs to dismiss one without submitting the keyword.

Clickable cancel controls always execute `/cmdp cancel` and are independent of `Cancel-Keyword`.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://cyr1en.gitbook.io/commandprompter/configuration/command-prompter-configuration/cancel-keyword.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
