MCP tools · 10 exposed · ~670 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
vault_add ~121

Securely add a new credential to the vault. Opens a browser form where the user enters their password directly — the password NEVER passes through the AI agent. Supports templates for popular services (github, jira, stripe, etc.).

NameTypeReqDescription
service_typestring–Type of credential (default: web_login, or from template)
session_scopedboolean–If true, credential auto-deletes when MCP session ends
site_idstring–Pre-fill the site identifier (e.g. "github"). If a template exists, selectors auto-fill.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vault_api_request ~140

Make an API request with stored credentials. The API key is injected automatically — the bot never sees it. Supports header, query param, and basic auth patterns.

NameTypeReqDescription
auth_typestring–Auth pattern: "header" (default), "query" (append key as URL param), "basic" (HTTP Basic Auth)
bodystring–Request body (JSON string)
headersobject–Additional headers
methodstring–HTTP method (default: GET)
servicestringyesThe service identifier (e.g. "openai", "stripe")
urlstringyesThe API endpoint URL

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vault_check ~43

Verify a credential is valid and ready to use. Checks existence, active status, required fields, and expiration.

NameTypeReqDescription
site_idstringyesThe site identifier to check

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vault_import ~101

Import API keys from a .env file. Each key is stored as an encrypted api_key credential. The .env values pass through memory only — never returned to the agent.

NameTypeReqDescription
file_pathstringyesPath to the .env file
mappingobject–Map .env variable names to site IDs, e.g. {"STRIPE_KEY": "stripe", "OPENAI_KEY": "openai"}. If omitted, all variables are imported.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vault_list ~26

List all available credentials in the vault. Returns only site IDs and types — no secrets.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vault_login ~100

Log into a website using stored credentials. The bot never sees the password — Vault fills the login form via Chrome DevTools Protocol. Supports TOTP 2FA if configured.

NameTypeReqDescription
site_idstringyesThe site identifier (e.g. "github", "jira")
timeout_msnumber–Login timeout in milliseconds (default: 15000)
totp_selectorstring–CSS selector for TOTP/2FA input field

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vault_remove ~29

Remove a credential from the vault permanently.

NameTypeReqDescription
site_idstringyesThe site identifier to remove

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vault_status ~39

Check the status of a specific credential: active/inactive, last used, audit count.

NameTypeReqDescription
site_idstringyesThe site identifier to check

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vault_templates ~25

List available credential templates for popular services. Templates auto-fill login URLs and CSS selectors.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vault_update ~46

Update an existing credential. Opens a browser form to enter new password/API key — the secret NEVER passes through the AI agent.

NameTypeReqDescription
site_idstringyesThe site identifier to update

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.
