},
);Security Notes
- Keep tokens, API keys, and connection strings in the encrypted credentials vault.
- Do not allow arbitrary server URLs for remote MCP connectors.
Troubleshooting
- If the health check fails, verify the token scope or credential payload and try again.
- If the tool list is empty, re-run sync-tools after storing the latest credentials.
