Read the list
Each row shows the server and its address, its owner, its status (Approved, Under review, Blocked or Not reviewed), how many tools it has, how many are destructive, and whether it is connected. Needs review shows the servers nobody has approved or blocked.Review a server
Choose a row. Give the server an Owner from your members and a Description of what it is for, so a reviewer can decide. Then choose Change status to approve it, keep it under review or block it, with a note if you want one. A server added through Altrum starts Under review and works straight away. Until it is blocked, its status records a decision and changes nothing about what it does.Block a server
Set the status to Blocked. Every key stops seeing the server’s tools at once, and a call to one of them is refused. It cannot be switched back on under AI Gateway until someone approves it or puts it back under review here. If the AI Gateway cannot be reached, the block is not saved either, so a server never shows Blocked while its tools still work: “The AI Gateway could not be updated, so nothing changed. Try again shortly.”What each tool can do
Every tool has a risk:
Altrum takes the risk from what the server says about its tools. A tool the server says nothing about counts as Destructive and is marked Assumed, because nothing says it is safe. You can set a tool’s risk yourself; it then shows Set by a person and stays that way when the server lists its tools again. Use the server’s goes back.
A risk ranks and records; it does not limit which tools a key may use. To limit tools, see MCP tools. View tool calls opens the server’s calls in the request log, and Reporting ranks destructive tools first.
Every change is recorded in the audit trail. Each person can make up to 60 changes to MCP servers an hour.
