Other prompts on this server
Machine Schema also offers 50 resources — data you attach as context, where a prompt is something you run.
Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling prompts/list on 11 November 2026.
A listing does not declare its prompts, so asking is the only way to know them, and this
is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are
stored; connect the server for each prompt's arguments.
