Use MCP prompts as commands

MCP servers can expose prompts that become available as commands in Claude Code.

Execute MCP prompts

Type `/` to see the commands available to you, including those from MCP servers. Claude Code lists each MCP prompt as `/servername:promptname (MCP)`. Typing `/mcp__servername__promptname` also runs it.

```text wrap theme=\{null\}
/mcp__github__list_prs
```

Many prompts accept arguments. Pass them space-separated after the command. Claude Code splits the arguments on whitespace, so each argument is a single token:

```text wrap theme=\{null\}
/mcp__github__pr_review 456
```

```text wrap theme=\{null\}
/mcp__jira__create_issue login-bug high
```

Tips:

• MCP prompts are dynamically discovered from connected servers
• Arguments are parsed based on the prompt's defined parameters
• Prompt results are injected directly into the conversation
• In the /mcp__servername__promptname form, Claude Code replaces any character in the server name outside A-Z, a-z, 0-9, _, and - with _, and uses the prompt name as the server declares it
