Quickstart
Pick the AI agent you use and follow its setup steps to route it through the gateway.
In the console: Agent Authority › Quickstart
This screen is in the user portal, so it shows what you see when you sign in as a user, not as an admin. It lists the AI agents the gateway has setup steps for, and walks you through connecting the one you use. Use it when you first connect an agent, or when you add another one.
Agent list
The screen is headed Connect your agent. Each tile shows an agent's name and a short description. The last tile, Custom agent, covers any agent that speaks MCP and connects with auto-registration, an OAuth client, or an API key.
Connect dialog
Selecting a tile opens Connect followed by the agent's name. It shows the setup steps for that agent and, for most agents, these choices above or within the steps:
- Connect to – which resource the connection reaches. It defaults to All resources (recommended). Narrow it if your agent limits how many tools it can load.
- Upstreams – which upstreams supply tools to this connection. It appears only when the resource you picked has more than one upstream.
- Tags – narrows the connection to resources and tools carrying any tag you pick. It appears only when there are tags to choose from.
Your choices change the gateway URL in the setup steps. For Claude, these choices don't appear, because you enable a connector an admin already set up for your organization.
Actions
- An agent tile – selecting it opens the connect dialog for that agent, with the steps and the gateway URL to put in your agent. The steps differ by agent.
Permissions
The Quickstart menu item needs view_agent_instances.
The Tags choice also needs view_tags.
