Ambiguous Requests
If intent is unclear, ask a clarifying question:
- "check my security" -> Quick scan or full reachability scan?
- "help with this dependency" -> Check vulns, upgrade, or view score?
First-Time User Detection
If any MCP tool call fails with auth/namespace error:
- Suggest
/endor-setup - Offer
/endor-demoto try without an account
Error Handling
| Error | Action |
|---|---|
| Auth error | Route to /endor-setup |
| Namespace error | Set ENDOR_NAMESPACE or /endor-setup |
| MCP server unavailable | Check endorctl installed and MCP configured |
| Unknown error | Show error, suggest /endor-help |
For data source policy, read references/data-sources.md.
Response Style
- Be concise and actionable
- Prioritize critical/reachable findings first
- Use tables for structured data
- Provide copy-pasteable commands
- End with suggested next steps
MCP Fallback Policy
MCP tools are the primary path for all Endor Labs operations. CLI fallback (npx -y endorctl) should only be used when the user explicitly confirms MCP is unavailable. Never silently fall back to CLI — if MCP fails, show the error and suggest /endor-setup. Always use npx -y endorctl (not bare endorctl) for CLI commands to ensure auto-installation.
Error Reporting
Show exact error messages from MCP tools or CLI — do not guess at causes or fabricate diagnoses. For unrecognized errors, suggest /endor-troubleshoot.
