Chat features and tools
No matter where you open chat - from the Overview page, the Chat page, or a space - you have access to the same core chat features and tools. Use these features to shape prompts, add context, select agents, attach files, and guide how AI responses are generated.
Enter a prompt
Type your question or request in natural language. You can also add more context, file attachments, or selected tools.
To submit a prompt, press Cmd + Enter (Mac) or Ctrl + Enter (Windows).
Examples:
- Write 5 email subject lines for [Campaign]. Make one of them a little mysterious
- Make this sound less like a corporate brochure and more like a text to a friend
- Summarize this product update in three bullet points for executives
Select an agent
Choose a prebuilt or custom agent to handle your task. Depending on the agent, you may need to configure parameters and can optionally select items (pages, artifacts briefs, or CSV files) for the agent to act on.
Examples:
- Select the Content Generator agent to draft marketing copy.
- Select the Researcher to analyze emerging industry trends.
- Select the Translator and select the target languages to localize the content.
Add context
Click Context 
to add sources that ground the AI. This helps it better understand your request and produce more relevant results. Context represents the information used to guide and inform the AI, giving you more control over how outputs are generated.
Available context sources:
Artifacts
Use previously generated artifacts as reference material. This lets you build on earlier work instead of starting over.
Examples:
- Translate the research report (generated by the Researcher agent) into French
- Create different social media content from the campaign brief (generated by the Brief generator agent)
Brand Kits
Select an existing brand kit to align responses with your organization’s brand knowledge, tone, and voice guidelines.
Examples:
- Rewrite this technical product update to match our brand voice
- Describe 3 photography styles for our next shoot that align with our brand's 'Sophisticated but Adventurous' vibe
Select skills and tools
Click Skills & Tools 
to give the AI additional capabilities.
Available capabilities:
Skills
Add reusable agent skills for specialized tasks. These can include custom or system skills, such as campaign planning, competitive analysis, or CSV and text extraction. Admins manage these skills in Agentic studio settings.
Examples:
- Help me plan a campaign for the Spring launch of our new website
- Research competitors in the DXP space using AI
- Analyze the attached CSV and summarize the site performance
Marketer MCP
Enable agents to perform actions in SitecoreAI using natural language. This includes retrieving and managing sites, creating and updating pages, editing content, and other marketing tasks. See Marketer MCP for details.

Sitecore Documentation MCP
Use official Sitecore documentation as reference material. This helps the AI give accurate, product-specific answers and cite trusted Sitecore sources.
Examples:
- How do I create a new site collection?
- What different components can I add to my page?
Tools
Use built-in chat tools to extend what the AI can do. Available tools include:

- Agent API tools
Examples:
- Generate a hero image for the summer 2026 campaign
- Search the web for latest products from my competitors
Attach a file
Click Attach files 
to add one or more files related to your request. The AI can use attached briefs, documents, or drafts to generate more accurate and tailored responses.
Examples
Upload a product brief and ask the AI to draft a launch announcement.
Paste a blog draft and request edits for clarity and tone.
Use voice input
Click Voice input 
to speak your prompt instead of typing it.
Examples
Can you turn this into a quick social post?
Summarize this in three key points for my team.
Select the type of model for processing
Choose a Model Type to control how AI handles your request.
- Default - automatically selects the best model for the task.
- Fast - optimized for speed. Best for simple requests and lightweight tasks.
- Expert - optimized for advanced reasoning and structured thinking. Responses may take longer.
Examples
Use Fast for quick rewrites or short summaries.
Use Expert for strategic planning, structured analysis, or complex problem-solving.
