Use MCP resources

MCP servers can expose resources that you can reference using @ mentions, similar to how you reference files.

Reference MCP resources

Type `@` in your prompt to see available resources from all connected MCP servers. Resources appear alongside files in the autocomplete menu.

Use the format `@server:protocol://resource/path` to reference a resource:

```text wrap theme=\{null\}
Can you analyze @github:issue://123 and suggest a fix?
```

```text wrap theme=\{null\}
Please review the API documentation at @docs:file://api/authentication
```

You can reference multiple resources in a single prompt:

```text wrap theme=\{null\}
Compare @postgres:schema://users with @docs:file://database/user-model
```

Tips:

• Resources are automatically fetched and included as attachments when referenced
• Resource paths are fuzzy-searchable in the @ mention autocomplete
• Claude Code automatically provides tools to list and read MCP resources when servers support them
• Resources can contain any type of content that the MCP server provides (text, JSON, structured data, etc.)
