Supported MCP tools
Prism MCP focuses on research retrieval, thesis context, artifacts, article drafts, and controlled write workflows.
The exact tool list can grow over time, but the product boundary should stay stable: Prism is the research system, and external AI clients use scoped tools to retrieve or prepare work.
Workflow
Primary steps
- 1Start with get_prism_workspace_context for the user's canonical workspace map and active tool boundaries.
- 2Use read-only tools for search, source retrieval, thesis context, artifacts, and activity.
- 3Use preflight tools before saving visualization artifacts.
- 4Use write tools only when enabled and scoped for the client.
Common read workflows
Start with the canonical workspace context, then search the library, inspect documents and file chunks, retrieve company thesis context, read claims, list artifacts, and review recent research activity.
Controlled write workflows
When enabled and authorized, Prism can expose draft creation and revision, article source attachment, artifact creation, library note/folder creation, thesis proposals, graph relationship edits, and portfolio context updates.
MCP tools should not bypass Prism's review surfaces for publishing or other high-impact actions.
