### Agent Capability 

# The protocol that keeps agents on a leash 

## Model Context Protocol (MCP) governs exactly what data and actions any AI agent is allowed to access. 

 [ Book a Demo ](https://www.staging38.commercient.com/ai-demo/)  ### Security that’s built into the protocol 

### Field-Level Permissions 

Decide exactly what any AI model or agent is allowed to see, per field, per policy, per agent as opposed to a blanket grant to an entire table. ### Nothing Shared By Default 

Data stays governed in your Data Lake unless explicitly authorized for a model or agent. Access is the exception you grant, not the default you start from. ### Consistent Across Every Agent 

The same governance model applies whether it’s the Sales Agent or the Accounting Agent, so adding a new agent role never means rebuilding your security model.  [ Book a Demo ](https://www.staging38.commercient.com/ai-demo/) ## Frequently asked questions (FAQs) 

###  What does MCP stand for?   

Model Context Protocol, the framework that lets AI agents securely and reliably access enterprise-grade connectors.

   ###  Will my data be sent to OpenAI or another AI model by default?   

No, access is governed per field and per policy. See Trust & Control for the full model.

   ###  Can I restrict what a specific agent can see?   

Yes, authorization can configured per agent and per field.

   ###  Is MCP something I configure myself, or does Commercient set it up?   

Commercient’s delivery team configures MCP-based access as part of setting up your agents and from there, you define the permission rules.

   ###  Does MCP work with any AI model?   

MCP is designed to work with major AI model providers, giving you flexibility without re-architecting access controls when you switch models.

   ###  Can I audit exactly what an agent accessed and when?   

Yes. Every action is logged and traceable, supporting audit and compliance review.
