# Slash Command Support - /sitecore
**Feature:** MCP Prompt Integration
**Status:** โ
Implemented
**Version:** 1.2.0
**Date:** October 16, 2025
---
## ๐ฏ What Is This?
When you type `/` in your chat interface (Claude Desktop, VS Code Copilot, etc.), you'll now see **`/sitecore`** in the slash command menu!
---
## ๐ How It Works
### 1. Type `/` in Chat
You'll see a menu with available commands including:
```
/sitecore - ๐ง Sitecore command interface
```
### 2. Select `/sitecore`
The interface will prompt you for a command.
### 3. Type Your Command
```
get item /sitecore/content/Home
search articles
help
```
### 4. Get Results
Beautifully formatted response with all item details!
---
## ๐ Implementation Details
### MCP Prompts Capability
We added `prompts` capability to the MCP server:
```typescript
capabilities: {
tools: {},
prompts: {}, // โ NEW!
}
```
### Prompt Definition
```typescript
{
name: "sitecore",
description: "๐ง Sitecore command interface",
arguments: [
{
name: "command",
description: "Your Sitecore command",
required: false
}
]
}
```
### Prompt Handler
When you select `/sitecore`, it:
1. Takes your command input
2. Wraps it in `/sitecore [command]`
3. Passes to the `sitecore_command` tool
4. Returns formatted results
---
## ๐จ User Experience
### Before (without slash command)
```
User: "Can you get me the Home item from Sitecore?"
AI: *thinks* *calls tool* *formats response*
```
### After (with slash command)
```
User: / [menu appears]
User: Selects /sitecore
User: Types "get item /sitecore/content/Home"
AI: *instantly processes* *returns formatted result*
```
**Much faster and more intuitive!**
---
## ๐ Supported Commands
All natural language commands work:
### Quick Access
```
/sitecore โ get item /sitecore/content/Home
/sitecore โ search articles
/sitecore โ children of /sitecore/content
```
