How Context Works

Context mentions are the primary way to share specific data with Prism AI. Without mentions, the AI can still:

  • List tables in your projects (via list_tables tool)
  • Fetch table schemas (via get_table_schema tool)
  • Read and update your query tabs (via tab tools)

Mentions give you explicit control over what context is included in your conversation.


Query Execution

Prism AI can run queries and show results directly in the chat.

When you ask the AI to query data, it executes against BigQuery using your credentials and displays results inline. A "Share with AI" toggle controls whether the AI can see the actual result rows — when off, the AI only sees metadata (row count, schema) but not the data itself.


Follow-Up Suggestions

After each response, Prism AI may show clickable suggestion chips for common next steps. Click any chip to send it as your next message.


Reasoning Display

When using reasoning-capable models (like Claude Sonnet 4.5 or GPT-o series), Prism AI shows the model's thinking process in a collapsible block before the final answer. Click to expand and see the full reasoning chain.
