MCP Tools Integration
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables AI agents to interact with external tools and services. Connect agents to the enterprise systems your organization already runs on.
What is MCP?
MCP is an open protocol that allows AI models to safely access external tools, data sources, and services. Rather than hardcoding integrations, MCP provides a standardized way for agents to discover and use capabilities dynamically.
Key Benefits
- • Extensible: Add new tools without modifying agent code
- • Secure: Tools run in isolated contexts with defined permissions
- • Discoverable: Agents can query available tools and their schemas
- • Standardized: One protocol works across different AI providers
Integration Ecosystem
Agents connect to the systems your organization already runs on through MCP. Each integration is registered per organization, governed by access policy, and isolated between tenants.

}Creating Custom Tools
Because Aethyr speaks the open Model Context Protocol, you are never limited to built-in integrations. Any MCP-compatible server—an off-the-shelf connector or one your team builds—can be registered to an organization, and its tools become available to agents subject to per-agent allow/deny policy.
Custom integrations are onboarded with your team so that authentication, credential storage, and tool permissions are configured securely before any agent can call them.
Tool Configuration
Configure which tools are available to each agent and set permission boundaries.
