What
- A reworked remote-tools setup pipeline, gated by
adoptMcpOverChannelSwitchOn, computes amachineMcpToolsPolicy(allowed/denied/pending/unavailable) for each MCP server and decides whether its tools are "adopted" as passthrough tools, used directly by a remote worker, instead of being routed through the device bridge. Adoption requires remote tool forwarding to be enabled, the channel switch to be on, policy to allow it, and the tool not to be disabled. - The remote-tools announce handler now computes
passthrough_adoptedandpassthrough_declined(with reasonspolicy,pending, orunavailable) outcomes and reports them in telemetry. - The
remote_tools_announceacknowledgement schema was extended withpassthrough_adopted(count of MCP tools kept) andpassthrough_declinedfields, andignored_toolsnow documents more reasons, including tools beyond the cap that the worker keeps.
Why Routing every MCP tool call through the device bridge adds overhead; letting a remote worker adopt and call MCP tools directly, when policy allows, should make those calls faster while keeping visibility into which tools were adopted versus declined and why.
