Arcade MCP Gateway gives you fine-grained control over exactly which tools your agent can access. Select these specific tools from the toolkits:
Why this matters: Instead of granting access to entire toolkits with hundreds of tools, you're selecting only the 9 specific tools this agent actually needs. This precision reduces risk and keeps your agent focused.
