## Connector health is operational risk

A stale token, broken MCP server, or unexpected tool schema can make an agent fail or act differently than expected. Review connector health before relying on a tool for production workflows.

_Connectors show each tool surface with owner, health, scope, and registered capabilities._

## What healthy looks like

A healthy connector is connected, recently checked, and owned by the team that understands the system behind it. Tool counts and permissions should match what agents are expected to use, and unexpected changes should be investigated as [blocked actions](/articles/investigate-blocked-actions) or operational risk.

Diagnostic messages should be quiet, recent, and understandable. Before changing or removing a connector, make sure the agents that depend on it are known.
