Tool Servers
Tool Servers are MCP-compliant external systems that expose collections of tools for agent use. They represent the infrastructure layer that provides agent capabilities.
When you register a Tool Server, Vectara synchronizes with it to discover the tools it exposes. These tools then become available for use by your agents.
Key properties of a Tool Server include:
- A unique ID following the pattern
tsr_[identifier] - Connection details including URI and authentication headers
- Metadata that you want to associate with the tool server when registering it
Tool servers enable agents to access enterprise systems like CRM platforms, business intelligence tools, workflow systems, and databases through standardized MCP interfaces.
