Functional description
Difficulty level: Advanced

Every tool behind the configuration door /mcpconfig has a right of its own. That right is necessary but never enough.

The chain

  1. tool_config_use — the master switch. Without this right the tool list is empty.
  2. tool_config_<tool> — one right per tool. Plan and apply each have their own right, so you can let someone look without letting them change anything.
  3. The functional right behind the tool — the very same right the screen uses.
  4. When writing: both configuration locks must be open. Tools with level 2 are not run on a production environment.

Who holds these rights?

The rights sit in the MCP-Config group, together with the functional rights the tools need. A fresh install gets that group automatically; on an upgraded environment you set it up with the button on Configuration → AI settings → Tools. Either way the group starts without members: adding someone to the group is the step that turns configuring through AI on for that person.

What the tools do is described on MCP configuration tools.
