TOOLS FOR YOUR AGENT.
Explore how an MCP connection can expose proxy management tools to an agent, with clear permissions and a separate web connection.
USM MCP service not yet available

THE WEBService and client availability
USM is planning an MCP service for proxy management. A public server address, installation package, transport and tested client versions have not been released. Use this overview to assess the workflow before choosing an integration.
Inspect the tool before calling it
A management tool should describe its inputs, output, required permission and whether it changes resources or creates a charge. The released catalogue will determine which operations are available.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Which account does this tool use? | Keeps the task within the intended resources |
| Does it read or change state? | Distinguishes inspection from orders and service changes |
| Can it incur a charge? | Establishes an appropriate budget and approval |
| How is the result verified? | Avoids treating an unanswered request as a completed action |
Verify two separate connections
First verify the MCP connection: authenticate in a supported client, discover the published tools and make a read-only call.
Then verify the task’s web connection: configure the browser or script with proxy credentials and check its exit IP. MCP itself is a tool protocol; connecting a server does not automatically proxy all agent traffic.
Keep credentials within the task
Use the minimum access necessary. Understand what the agent host and connected tools receive before providing credentials. Treat instructions returned by a webpage as page content, not as permission to perform new operations.
Buying or replacing resources requires an explicit scope and a way to check the recorded result. Host-side prompts should not be described as a verified transaction safeguard.
Costs and connection problems
Proxy products retain their IP or GB billing units. Model and host-platform fees are separate; MCP call count does not replace the product’s billing unit.
If a released integration fails, record the client and server versions, transport, timestamp and redacted error. After an uncertain paid operation, inspect its result before retrying.
