What does @ mean in KQL?

Hello KevinLin,
@ here is a part of regex and not KQL.
"You can use '@' prefix to a string literal (similar to .NET)."
Please, check the following:
The string data type - Azure Data Explorer | Microsoft Learn
azure data explorer - KQL Regex Extraction - Stack Overflow
And this: C# Strings (tutorialsteacher.com)
Basically, @ is used to simplify the query.
