It sounds like you use natbib/bibtex (citet/citep are natbib commands I
think). In that case, my current understanding is that these are the
syntaxes for what you want, with the natbib exporter selected.

 [cite:@key]  -> \citep{key}

 [cite/t:@key]  -> \citet{key}

But, if you use the biblatex backend, these map to

 [cite:@key]  -> \autocite{key}

 [cite/t:@key]  -> \textcite{key}

There is not currently a way to get \citet and \citep with the biblatex
backend.
