Adding a Prompt to a Provider

A Prompt acts as a pre-constructed set of instructions or templates that any connected MCP server can utilize to standardize interactions.

Using REST API

To programmatically bind a new prompt instruction set to a provider, issue a POST request with the ProviderPromptCreate payload. POST /providers/{providerId}/prompts

JSON Payload Requirements

Your payload requires a prompt object composed of exactly 4 fields:
  • name (string): A distinct programmatic identifier.
  • description (string, optional): Context clarifying when the LLM should use this prompt.
  • arguments (object array): JSON array defining expected variables (e.g., [{"name": "repo_name", "description": "Name of git repository", "required": true}]).
  • messages (object array): JSON array mapping the template content (e.g., [{"role": "user", "content": {"type": "text", "text": "Analyze the codebase for {repo_name}"}}]).
