Overview

A grant is the record that authorizes a set of members to call a specific set of tools. If no grant exists for a caller on a given tool, the call is rejected. There is no implicit access.
Account Owner or Admin permission is required to create and manage grants.
A grant has two parts:
  • Users & Robots: the people and automated accounts attached to the grant
  • Tools Allowed: the specific tools members can call, selected per server

Create a Grant

1

Open the Grants page

In the Aptible dashboard, navigate to MCP > Grants and click New Grant.
2

Name the grant

Enter a Grant Name that describes the scope (e.g. GitHub (Eng), Toolshed (Owners)).
3

Add users and robots

Under Users & Robots, search for and select the members who should receive this grant. Both user accounts and robot accounts appear in this list.

Choose tools and save

Under Tools Allowed, expand the servers you want to include. Select individual tools, or check Select all tools (wildcard *) to allow all current and future tools on that server. Click Save to apply the grant.
Tools are grouped by server and by category (e.g. read-only vs. write). The count badge next to each server shows how many tools are selected out of how many are available.
