Use Context Library with AI tools

Last updated:

Palette MCP lets supported agents search, list, and read the Context Library pages available to the signed-in person. Access is on demand, follows Palette permissions, and does not preload every page into every conversation.

The usefulness of each prompt depends on the pages your organization generates and when they were last refreshed. If Palette does not contain the answer, ask the agent to say so instead of guessing.

Tip

Ask the agent to use Palette, name the scope you need, and include the source page and last refresh date in its answer.

Get oriented

Search Palette for the pages available to me. Summarize the organization and team context I should read first, with links or page names.

Who owns [insert topic or project] according to the Context Library? Name the page and when it was last refreshed.

What priorities are listed for my team? Separate current context from anything that may be stale or missing.

Prepare for work

Use the Context Library to brief me on [insert project]. Cover its purpose, owners, current focus, and dependencies. Say when Palette does not contain an answer.

I am meeting [insert person or team]. Read the permitted Palette pages that are relevant and give me a short preparation brief with source pages.

Compare this proposal with the organization and team priorities available in Palette. Flag alignments, tensions, and missing context.

Work across teams

What does the Context Library say [insert team] is focused on? Only use pages available to me and include their last refresh dates.

Which dependencies between my team and [insert team] are documented in Palette? Distinguish explicit context from your own inference.

Create a handoff brief from the Palette pages available to me: purpose, owners, decisions, dependencies, and open questions. Do not invent missing details.

A reliable prompt pattern

For higher-stakes questions, include four instructions:

  1. Ask the agent to search Palette explicitly.
  2. Name the organization, team, user, project, or topic you need.
  3. Ask for source page names and last refresh dates.
  4. Tell the agent to identify missing or uncertain context rather than filling gaps.

Setup

See the setup guides for Claude, ChatGPT, or other MCP-compatible tools.
