get_prompt

Fetch one customer prompt's stored template text and description by its name (as shown by list_prompts). This returns the raw stored template — the exact text you'd edit — so you can inspect a prompt before revising it, or copy it into a personal or team space the credential can manage and refine it.

You can read any customer prompt you can see, including one from your organization's shared catalogue. A prompt you can't see reads as not found — its existence is never revealed.

The name is caller-relative: bare selects personal content for a standalone credential and the organization catalogue for an organization credential; me/name selects the represented member's private organization space, and <team>/name selects a bound team.

Platform prompts such as apistash/agent-doctor are fetched with native prompts/get and are not part of this customer-content management tool.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
name	string	Yes	The prompt to fetch, named exactly as list_prompts shows it.

Response

Field	Type	Description
name	string	The prompt's name.
description	string	The prompt's description, when it has one.
content	string	The stored template text (raw {{name}} placeholders, not filled in).
arguments	array	The prompt's declared parameters, when it has any (each { name, description, required }).

Example

{
	"name": "launch-copy"
}

Result:

{
	"name": "launch-copy",
	"description": "Product launch announcement",
	"content": "Write a launch announcement for {{product}} aimed at {{audience}}.",
	"arguments": [
		{ "name": "product", "description": "The product being launched", "required": true },
		{ "name": "audience", "description": "", "required": false }
	]
}

Errors

Each failure carries a precise code in the response. A domain rejection — a not-found or a capability denial — is returned as a tool result with isError: true, so the agent can read the code and self-correct; malformed arguments and server faults are JSON-RPC protocol errors.

Code	Cause	Delivered as
prompt_not_found	No such prompt is visible to you — it doesn't exist or is out of scope.	tool error (isError)
capability_denied	The credential lacks the Prompts capability required for this read.	tool error (isError)
invalid_arguments	The arguments are missing or don't match the input schema.	protocol error (invalid_params)
internal_error	An unexpected error occurred.	protocol error (internal_error)

Notes

• To copy a catalogue prompt, read it here, then use create_prompt with a name of your choosing — including its arguments if you want the same parameters.
• The content is the raw template with unsubstituted {{name}} placeholders. A native prompts/get fills those in from supplied values; see Prompts → Arguments.
• To find the name to pass, use list_prompts first.
• Reading a prompt counts as one tool call against your plan's tool-invocation allowance.
