Usage
-
To trigger this MCP, append this to your chat messages:
Use sequential thinking to reason about this. -
Use ready-to-go prompts that trigger Code-Reasoning:
- Click the "+" icon in the Claude Desktop chat window, or in Claude Code type
/helpto see the specific commands. - Select "Add from Code Reasoning" from the available tools
- Choose a prompt template and fill in the required information
- Submit the form to add the prompt to your chat message and hit return
See the Prompts Guide for details on using the prompt templates.
