## Quick Start

<Steps>
  <Step title="Simple Usage">
    ```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
    praisonai-ts prompt-expand "write a story"
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="With Configuration">
    ```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
    praisonai-ts prompt-expand "Write code" --strategy detail --json
    ```
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Basic Usage

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
# Expand a prompt (default strategy: auto)
praisonai-ts prompt-expand "write a story"

# Get JSON output
praisonai-ts prompt-expand "create an app" --json
```

**Example Output:**

```json theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "originalPrompt": "write a story",
    "expandedPrompt": "Write a compelling narrative with...",
    "strategy": "detail",
    "additions": ["genre", "length", "characters", "plot"]
  }
}
```

## Expansion Strategies

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
# Detail strategy - add specific details
praisonai-ts prompt-expand "Write code" --strategy detail

# Context strategy - add background context
praisonai-ts prompt-expand "Explain this" --strategy context

# Examples strategy - add example outputs
praisonai-ts prompt-expand "Show me" --strategy examples

# Constraints strategy - add requirements
praisonai-ts prompt-expand "Build a website" --strategy constraints

# Auto strategy (default) - automatically detect best approach
praisonai-ts prompt-expand "Create function" --strategy auto
```
