# Tool & Connector Governance

This page centralizes admin controls for tools and integrations in chats and assistants.

## Core functions

- global tool availability
- method policies (for example read-only vs extended write access)
- enablement for connectors, databases, external MCPs, and custom MCPs
- Assistant Creator for standardized assistant rollouts

## Admin practice

- start with restrictive policy and open up in a controlled way
- allow critical methods in pilot teams first
