- **Category Filtering** - Prompts are organized by category, with each tool showing only the relevant prompt type
- **Auto-Refresh on Expand** - Prompt list refreshes automatically when the accordion is opened, no manual refresh needed

**Split by Paragraph**
- **Batch Audio Generation** - New "Split by Paragraph" checkbox in Voice Clone splits text by line breaks and generates a separate audio clip for each paragraph

- **Combined Preview** - A combined preview of all clips plays automatically in the audio player after generation
