Overview
Taskade EVE Mentions let you point Taskade EVE at exact workspace items: projects, agents, or databases, instead of describing them. Mention by name and Taskade EVE reads the right context on the first try, no follow-ups required.
TL;DR: Mention a project, agent, database, or other workspace item in Taskade EVE chat. The mention adds that item as direct context. Taskade EVE can then answer questions or act on the correct resource. See the Taskade EVE guide for more actions.
Here is what an @mention looks like in the Taskade EVE chat:
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Taskade EVE chat │
│ You type: Summarize @Q1 Revenue Board │
│ │
│ @ picks a real workspace item: │
│ - Q1 Revenue Board ......... project │
│ - Support Agent ............ agent │
│ - Orders ................... database │
│ │
│ The reply is grounded in that exact item: │
│ "Revenue is up 18% this quarter ..." │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
How to Use Mentions
- Open Taskade EVE in any Taskade Genesis app or project.
- Type your prompt and reference a workspace item by name.
- Taskade EVE automatically pulls in the mentioned item as context.
Example prompts:
- "Summarize the key metrics from Q1 Revenue Dashboard"
- "Create a follow-up task list based on Client Onboarding Project"
- "Use the Support Agent to draft a response for this ticket"
What You Can Mention
| Item Type | How It Helps |
|---|---|
| Projects | Taskade EVE reads the project's tasks, notes, and data |
| Agents | Taskade EVE delegates work to the mentioned agent |
| Databases | Taskade EVE queries structured data from your tables |
| Workspace items | Taskade EVE uses any item as context for its response |
Why Mentions Matter
Without mentions, Taskade EVE responds based on general context. With mentions, Taskade EVE targets the exact data source you need, leading to more relevant answers, fewer follow-up prompts, and faster workflows.
Without mentions:
"What is our revenue this quarter?" → Taskade EVE guesses which data to use
With mentions:
"What is our revenue based on Q1 Revenue Tracker?" → Taskade EVE reads the specific project
Tips for Better Results
- Be specific. Mention the exact project or agent name rather than describing it.
- Combine mentions. Reference multiple items in a single prompt for cross-project analysis.
- Use with automations. Trigger automations that reference specific projects for automated reporting.
