When an agent needs a tool that is turned off, it can ask you for it instead of failing. A workspace owner or admin decides whether to turn the tool on.

How it works

The agent sends a tool access request, and Locus creates an approval link. An owner or admin opens the link and approves or denies the request. Approval turns the tool on in the agent’s tool set. For what the agent sees, read Paid tool calls.

Approve or deny a request

1

Open the approval link

Sign in as a workspace owner or admin and open the link before it expires after 30 minutes.
2

Decide

Approve to turn the tool on for that agent’s tool set, or deny to leave it off.

Hide disabled tools from agents

When Show disabled tools as requestable is on, agents can find disabled tools and request them. To keep disabled tools out of agent search, turn off Show disabled tools as requestable under Settings → Agents.
