MCP Client Tool

The MCP Client Tool enables your agents to interact with systems using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The MCP Client (Model Context Protocol) enables agents to connect to internal and external MCP‑compliant servers. It provides a standardized way for agents to access server‑exposed tools and retrieve data, allowing them to interact with enterprise systems as well as publicly accessible data sources.


Field	Description
*Indicates mandatory field
Name*	A unique identifier for this tool instance. This name is used internally by the agent logic to reference the MCP connection.
Description*	A short description of what this tool does or the purpose of this particular instance.
MCP Server URL*	The complete URL of the MCP server endpoint to which the agent should connect. Example https://mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp,
Transport Protocol (sse, http)*	Specifies the communication protocol for interacting with the MCP server. For example, `streamable_http` enables continuous or chunked HTTP streaming.
Allowed Tools*	Choose whether this tool can be accessed by all tools (`All Tools`) or only specific ones (`Tool selection`).
Verify SSL certificate	(Checkbox) Enable this to ensure a secure connection by validating the server's SSL certificate.
Credentials type to connect with*	Select the authentication method required by the MCP server. Standard Auth Options: Use these for private or enterprise servers requiring API keys or tokens. None (unauthenticated): Select this option for public servers that do not require credentials.Example: Use the None option when connecting to a public server like DeepWiki, which allows open access to its data without an API key.
Credentials to connect with	Choose from existing credentials configured under the selected credential type. Note: Refer to the Adding a Credential section for steps to configure this.
Allowed tools Once the server connection is established, you must configure which specific tools the agent is permitted to use.
All Tools	Grants the agent access to every tool available on the connected MCP server.
Tool Selection	Allows you to pick specific functions for the agent to use.
Available MCP tools*	Use the dropdown to check the specific tools you want to enable, such as: `read_wiki_structure` `read_wiki_contents` `ask_question` Note: This field appears only when Tool Selection is selected. Note: This list is dynamic. After entering the URL, use the dropdown to select which specific tools (for example, ask_question) you want to authorize for the agent.
