Only removing a connection notes it on a kept tool. A config save through
update_tool or update_tool_config carries the stored note and ignores the
client's copy, so it can neither fake nor clear it; creating a tool, an
MCP server save and an agent import start without one. The note is now
written even for a connection with no catalog key, and a kept tool its
owner gave credentials of its own since runs again.
API-key, widget and public-link callers were held to the write allowlist
only on connected accounts, so they could still write through an API
tool or a signed-in MCP server that carries the owner's credentials. Any
write on credentials the caller doesn't hold is now refused unless the
owner allowlisted it, and a scheduled run for such a caller counts as not
holding any. The tool list names these writes per tool, so the allowlist
can offer them, and its copy now names every route it covers.
/api/update_tool now checks submitted actions against the stored ones the
same way /api/update_tool_actions does: nothing can be added, and only the
tool's owner can change a fixed value. The tool type (name) can no longer
be changed after creation by anyone.
For API tools, changing who fills an existing header, query or body
parameter, its value, or clearing a stored value is now owner-only on both
/api/update_tool and /api/update_tool_config. Before, an editor could hand
a stored secret query value to the model and read it back in the chat.
The chat now masks every value that came from the stored action rather
than from the model.
A connection-backed MCP tool can no longer be moved to another server or
sign-in method through /api/update_tool or /api/update_tool_config (400,
pointing to /api/mcp_server/save), and a new key saved through
/api/update_tool_config goes to its connection, owner only.
Main's access model (team editors and viewers, edit_credentials, owner-only
OAuth servers, per-user tool preferences, resource sponsors) now applies to
connection-backed tools and sources. Our migrations are renumbered to
0040_connections and 0041_connection_account_name, after main's
0038_resource_access_settings and 0039_resource_sponsors.
Where the two sides met: MCP tools save and load their connections as the
tool owner, editors may add a key (a new connection on the owner's account)
but never rewrite an existing connection's secret, fixed values stay
owner-only, and a member's own connection is used in member mode.
After removing a Linear connection, connecting again could skip signing in
and save Linear as an unconnected custom tool: a client cached before the
removal still held the old tokens, and a late token write re-created a
connection for them. A token write for a named connection no longer creates
one, removing or disconnecting a connection drops its cached clients, and a
sign-in server is never saved without its connection.
Connections get an account_name (migration 0039) that the owner sets with
PATCH /api/connections/<id>; the account label stays the account's
identity, so signing in again still finds it. When someone has more than
one account of a service, its tools are listed as "Telegram · <account>"
and the model sees each account's actions under the account's name
(telegram_send_message_alerts_bot) with the account in the description,
instead of _1 and _2. Actions shared by different services are named
after the service. Tools a user renamed keep their name.
update_tool_actions now checks the submitted actions against the tool's
stored ones: no new actions or parameters, fixed values must fit their
parameter's type. A team editor can still switch actions on and off but
gets 403 for changing a fixed value.
mcp 2.x reads code, state and the RFC 9207 iss off the callback handler's
result; the handler still returned a (code, state) tuple, so every MCP
sign-in failed after the user approved it. The callback route now keeps the
issuer too, since servers that advertise it (Linear) refuse a sign-in
without it.
The client follows an MCP sign-in by its task's events, but the test route
kept only success, requires_oauth and auth_url, so the wizard and the custom
MCP modal reported a failed sign-in before the popup could load.
- Add Source hands a connection tile to the connect wizard: an existing
account goes straight to choosing what to sync, otherwise it connects
one. The legacy per-service forms stay only for installs without
connectors, so S3 no longer has two different forms.
- Add Tool lists services from the connector catalog first, MCP presets
included, each with its connection state; a connected one opens its
drawer, the rest start the wizard. Built-in tools follow.
- Service tools carry the connector's name everywhere ("Telegram", not
"Telegram Bot"), and the composer groups custom tools (API tool, MCP
servers) as Custom, like the agent builder.
- OpenAPI opens the API tool editor as an unsaved draft; the tool is
created on its first save, so exploring the menu leaves nothing behind.
Notion, Linear, Atlassian, Sentry, Asana and Stripe no longer open the
MCP server form. The wizard shows one "Sign in to Notion" button: the
pop-up opens inside the click (so browsers allow it), follows the
worker's mcp.oauth events to the provider, and the tool is saved on
success with its actions on the done step. Reconnecting a preset uses
the same flow, as do the chat bar and the health toast.
Saving an OAuth MCP server without a new handshake now uses the stored
sign-in instead of failing, and the custom MCP form keeps scopes and
timeout under Show advanced.
A connector's enabled switch is now optional: unset means on when the
connector has the server settings it needs, so Google Drive, SharePoint
and Confluence start off until their OAuth settings are present, and an
admin's explicit switch always wins. Changing only the sharing mode no
longer switches a connector on.
Members only see connectors they can use. The catalog, Add Source tiles
and Add Tool leave out anything turned off or still needing setup, except
a connector a member already has a connection to, which stays listed as
turned off so it can be managed or removed.
- Creating a tool from an existing connection validates its config too;
the connection supplies the secrets the request leaves out.
- When the connector policies cannot be read, the MCP test and save
routes answer 503 instead of contacting the server.
- Editing a connection-backed tool validates the config before writing
new credentials, so a rejected edit no longer rotates the connection's
key and resumes its sources.
- An MCP edit keeps its previous connection only when the caller owns it
and it signs in the way the tool now does.
Covers creating and editing tools whose key lives on a connection, the
MCP action refresh, and the auth, ownership and error branches of the
connections API. Editing a tool's key now also recovers a connection
whose stored credentials can no longer be decrypted.
Editing an MCP server's URL kept the previous connection when no new
one could be stored (default encryption key), so its key would reach the
new server. The save route now keeps a previous connection only for the
same server, and the executor refuses an MCP tool whose connection was
stored for another server.
- An MCP connection's tokens only go to its own server, and a
connection_id can no longer come from a client: the MCP test/save
routes drop it and the tool executor uses only the resolved one.
- API-key connections are reused only when they hold the same
credentials. Two keys that share a hint or a label get separate
connections ("…abcd (2)"), at runtime and in the 0038 backfill.
- Reconnecting a connection whose secrets cannot be decrypted no longer
flags it from a second transaction while holding its row lock.
- Connection setup validates the sync request before claiming its
Idempotency-Key, so a corrected retry is queued.
- A request that names no connection resolves to none without opening
a database connection; fixes two tests that reached a real database.
Six vendor-run MCP servers (Notion, Linear, Atlassian, Sentry, Asana,
Stripe) join the catalog as presets from docsgpt/connectors/presets/
mcp.yaml; existing connections to those servers show under them.
connector_policies lets an admin turn a connector off or force whose
account every share uses, and app_metadata's
connectors.allow_custom_mcp turns custom MCP servers off. Both are
enforced on the server: new connections, OAuth sign-ins, MCP test and
save, and the tools of a disabled connector stop resolving.
GET/PUT /api/admin/connectors reads and changes them.
A shared tool's owner picks owner or member credentials with
PUT /api/connections/tools/<id>/credential-mode, and a member running
the owner's account always confirms write actions.
Tool-call events and retrieved chunks name the connector they came
from (key and display name, never the account), and tool calls keep
those fields when the conversation is reloaded.
Migration 0038 moves every stored secret (OAuth tokens, MCP OAuth
tokens and client registrations, API keys) into the connection's
encrypted envelope, links API-key tools to one connection per distinct
credential, allows several accounts per provider, and adds
credential_mode to sources and tools. OAuth MCP tools keep resolving
each member's own token, as they did before.
docsgpt.connectors.service is now the only reader of OAuth tokens:
get_valid_token_info refreshes under a row lock and persists rotated
refresh tokens, and a revoked grant flags the connection, pauses its
sources and notifies the owner. Loaders build from a connection
(BaseConnectorLoader.from_connection), so scheduled sync covers Drive,
SharePoint and Confluence sources with no browser. S3 and Reddit keys
stay on the connection instead of in remote_data.
New endpoints: POST /api/connections, /setup, /reconnect,
/picker-token, /claim, DELETE /api/connections/<id>, per-action
permissions and MCP refresh-tools. Upload, file listing, sync and
validate-session take a connection_id; session tokens keep working for
this release. The tool executor reads credentials from the resolved
connection (owner or member mode) and pauses on a Connect card when a
connection needs signing in. docsgpt connectors reencrypt rewrites
stored credentials after a key rotation.
connector_sessions already holds one row per signed-in account or MCP
server. Migration 0038 names each row (connector_key, auth_kind,
display_name, account_label) and lets sources and tools point at the
row they use through connection_id, backfilling the links it can prove.
docsgpt/connectors/catalog.py declares every service DocsGPT connects
to, with the server settings it needs and what a connection provides.
New endpoints: GET /api/connectors/catalog, GET /api/connections,
GET /api/connections/<id> and POST /api/connections/<id>/disconnect.
/api/available_tools now groups tools into built_in, service and
custom, and source listings carry connectionId.
Message tail and the ASGI reconnect stream cannot tie a message to an
allowlist, so any token with a resource filter is refused there. The tools
listing now applies the allowlist to default and builtin rows as well. Token
creation answers 400 instead of 500 for a JSON body that is not an object.
A central rule table maps each route and method to the scope a token needs;
a route that is not listed cannot be called with a token, and a test fails
when a registered route is left unclassified. Token management, admin, team
management, sign-in, device pairing and OAuth handshakes are never token
reachable, and a token never carries the admin role.
A token restricted to specific agents, sources, prompts, tools or workflows
is held to its allowlist: ids are checked wherever a route carries them,
listings are filtered, creation is refused, and routes whose rows cannot be
tied to the allowlist are closed. Agent import checks the resolved target.
The backend import package is now docsgpt, the name it will carry on PyPI;
application was far too generic to install into anyone's site-packages.
git mv plus a mechanical rewrite of every import, dotted string and path
reference: 734 Python files, the compose files, Dockerfile, workflows, docs,
setup scripts, devcontainer, k8s manifests, vscode config, pytest and coverage
config, .gitignore. Behaviour is unchanged.
Kept for one release:
- A top-level application package whose meta-path finder resolves
application.x.y to the already-imported docsgpt.x.y object, so old imports
and entry points (celery -A application.app.celery,
uvicorn application.asgi:asgi_app) keep working with a FutureWarning.
- Celery registers every application.* task name as an alias of its
docsgpt.* task on start-up, so messages queued by the previous release still
run. The redbeat key prefix moves to redbeat:docsgpt:v2: so schedule entries
the previous release wrote are left unread instead of firing twice.
The backend image builds from the repository root (docker build -f
docsgpt/Dockerfile .) so it can ship the alias package; a root .dockerignore
allow-lists docsgpt/ and application/ and keeps caches, local data, .env
files, the sample index files and the Dockerfile out. Compose and the image
workflows point at the new context.
