Select the specific tools you need

Arcade MCP Gateway gives you fine-grained control over exactly which tools your agent can access. Select these specific tools from the toolkits:

GoogleSheets.UpdateCells
GoogleSheets.CreateSpreadsheet
Gmail.ListEmails
Gmail.SendEmail
Gmail.ReplyToEmail
GoogleCalendar.ListEvents

Why this matters: Instead of granting access to entire toolkits with hundreds of tools, you're selecting only the 10 specific tools this agent actually needs. This precision reduces risk and keeps your agent focused.
