Prompt and skill guidance
Give external AI clients explicit instructions to use Prism as the source-backed research system of record.
The signed-in setup guide includes a copyable Prism AI skill. This public reference explains the intent behind that guidance.
Workflow
Primary steps
- 1Tell the AI client to search Prism before answering research questions.
- 2Ask it to cite Prism resources and separate evidence from interpretation.
- 3Tell it to validate artifacts and respect MCP write boundaries.
Core instruction
Use Prism MCP when the user asks about their investment research, library files, thesis work, article drafts, artifacts, or source-backed writing.
Prefer Prism context over memory. If Prism has no relevant source, say so plainly before using general reasoning.
Output discipline
Name the Prism resources used, keep citations tied to retrieved source material, and mark any unsourced interpretation as interpretation.
