Sometimes a tool needs a decision mid-flight — a password, a confirmation. Elicitation is the MCP mechanism for the server to prompt the user through the client, instead of failing or guessing.
Where it could help publishing
A publish tool could elicit 'lock this with a password?' before sharing. Hushdrop keeps it simple today (params on the call), but elicitation is a natural fit.
FAQ
Does it work with any AI agent?
Yes. It's a CLI plus a SKILL.md and an MCP server, so Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Gemini CLI — anything that runs a shell or speaks MCP — can use it.
