Tool Profiles

Tool profiles control which tools are visible to a connected agent. By limiting the tool set to what’s relevant, you reduce schema overhead and keep each session focused on only the capabilities it needs.

Questions This Page Answers

Which profile should I use for my operator workflow?
How much tool-surface reduction does each profile provide?
Why do narrower profiles improve reliability and token efficiency?

Why Profiles Matter

Lower schema load: fewer tools means clearer selection and lower token overhead.
Safer execution: profiles reduce accidental high-impact calls in the wrong context.
Faster operator loops: less noise in suggestions, cleaner control-plane behavior.

How to Use Profiles

Append ?profile=NAME to the MCP connection URL:

https://mcp.useorgx.com/mcp?profile=commander

Or in your MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orgx": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp.useorgx.com/mcp?profile=executor"]
    }
  }
}

Default is full — all tools registered, backward compatible.

Memory Profile

Purpose: Shared organizational memory for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other MCP clients. Tools:

Category	Tools
Bootstrap	`orgx_bootstrap`, `orgx_describe_tool`, `orgx_describe_action`, `workspace`
Memory	`orgx_decide`, `orgx_search`, `orgx_search`, `get_decision_history`, `orgx_decide`
Approvals	`orgx_decide`, `orgx_decide`, `orgx_decide`, `orgx_decide`
Context	`orgx_inspect`, `orgx_recommend`, `orgx_recommend`, `orgx_recommend`

Best for: Directory users and first-time installs that want OrgX to behave like shared company memory before exposing the full planning and execution surface.

Start with memory when your first prompts are “remember this decision”, “what did we decide”, “find that artifact”, or “show work waiting on me”. Switch to full when you want planning, task delegation, widgets, and initiative execution.

Commander Profile

Purpose: Human operators managing decisions, entities, and org overview. Tools (27):

Category	Tools
Decisions	`orgx_search`, `orgx_decide`, `orgx_decide`
Agents	`orgx_spawn`
Memory	`orgx_search`
Monitoring	`orgx_recommend`, `orgx_recommend`, `orgx_recommend`
Entity CRUD	`orgx_search`, `orgx_write`, `update_entity`, `orgx_act`, `orgx_act dry_run=true`, `scaffold_initiative`, `orgx_inspect`
Comments	`comment_on_entity`, `list_entity_comments`
Prioritization	`orgx_recommend`, `record_quality_score`
Workspace	`workspace`
Onboarding	`configure_org`
Stats	`stats`

Best for: ChatGPT users, dashboard operators, team leads reviewing agent output.

The commander profile still carries legacy compatibility aliases such as orgx_decide, get_decision_history, and orgx_recommend for older clients. New operator flows should prefer orgx_search, orgx_search, and orgx_recommend.

Planner Profile

Purpose: Initiative planning, hierarchy scaffolding, and plan sessions. Tools (18):

Category	Tools
Planning	`orgx_plan`, `get_active_sessions`, `orgx_plan`, `orgx_plan`, `orgx_plan`
Entity Creation	`scaffold_initiative`, `orgx_write`, `update_entity`, `batch_create_entities`
Browse	`orgx_search`, `orgx_inspect`, `orgx_act`
Context	`orgx_search`, `orgx_recommend`, `orgx_recommend`
Workspace	`workspace`

Best for: Product managers defining initiatives, planning agents, strategy sessions.

Executor Profile

Purpose: Agent execution — progress reporting, changesets, spawning. Tools (14):

Category	Tools
Telemetry	`orgx_emit_activity`, `orgx_apply_changeset`, `sync_client_state`
Authorization	`orgx_spawn`, `orgx_spawn`
Streams	`update_stream_progress`, `get_initiative_stream_state`
Tasks	`orgx_act`, `orgx_search`, `orgx_inspect`, `comment_on_entity`
Agents	`orgx_spawn`, `orgx_spawn`
Workspace	`workspace`

Best for: Background agent workers, CI/CD pipelines, automated task execution.

Observer Profile

Purpose: Read-only monitoring and reporting. Tools (18):

Category	Tools
Decisions	`orgx_search`
Agents	`orgx_spawn`
Monitoring	`orgx_recommend`, `orgx_recommend`, `orgx_recommend`
Memory	`orgx_search`
Browse	`orgx_search`, `orgx_inspect`, `list_entity_comments`
Prioritization	`orgx_recommend`, `get_scoring_signals`, `get_scoring_config`
Streams	`get_initiative_stream_state`
Workspace	`workspace`
Stats	`stats`

Best for: Dashboards, reporting tools, status monitors, read-only integrations.

The observer profile also keeps orgx_decide, get_decision_history, and orgx_recommend registered as compatibility aliases. Use orgx_search, orgx_search, and orgx_recommend in new recipes.

Full Profile (Default)

All tools registered. No restrictions. Use when you need maximum flexibility or are exploring the API. Token impact: ~2x the tokens of a focused profile.

Profile Size Reduction

Compared to the full tool surface:

Profile	Tools	Approx. Reduction
Memory	Focused	Highest
Commander	27	~56%
Planner	18	~70%
Executor	14	~77%
Observer	18	~70%
Full	All	0% (baseline)

Start with the most restrictive profile that covers your use case. You can always switch to full if you need additional tools.

Choosing a Profile

Use Case	Recommended Profile
Shared company memory for agents	`memory`
Human reviewing decisions in ChatGPT	`commander`
Building initiative plans in Cursor	`planner`
Background agent executing tasks	`executor`
Dashboard or monitoring integration	`observer`
Exploring the API / development	`full`
