How does this affect me?

This feature allows users to integrate proprietary systems, dynamic knowledge sources, and custom actions into agentic workflows with MCP support. Agent workflows can pass structured inputs to MCP-compliant tools and consume structured outputs downstream, enabling deterministic orchestration around agent-extensible capabilities. This functionality allows usage of the same MCP server across multiple agents and workflows, avoiding bespoke connector development for every system.

MCP tools execute under existing workflow governance, monitoring, and lifecycle management.

What action do I need to take?
