Available Tools

Important

Beta Feature — MCP Server (AI Access) is currently in beta and is being rolled out to databases over the coming weeks. It may not be available in your database yet, and the details on this page may still change during the beta. See MCP Server (AI Access).

A tool is a single operation the AI agent can perform in TouchPoint. You never call these directly — you ask the agent for what you want in plain language and it decides which tools to use. The list below is here so you know what is possible, and so an administrator can see exactly what surface area is exposed.

Every tool runs as you. If your TouchPoint roles do not let you see an organization or edit a person, the tool cannot either, and results are still filtered by McpViewContact and McpViewDemographics. Tools marked write additionally require the Allow Write Actions setting to be on for your church.

Result Limits

Tools that return lists are capped by the Max Results Per Tool Call setting, so a broad request comes back as one page at a time and the agent asks for more if it needs them. Raising that setting increases the amount of data a single call can send to the AI provider.
