MCP Prompt

Definition

A prompt is a template the server exposes so a client can present structured invocation patterns to a user. Clients list prompts via prompts/list and retrieve one via prompts/get with arguments. Prompts are input to a model, not executable actions.

Prompt vs Tool

A prompt structures model input. A tool executes an action. Both are negotiated during initialization.
