[FEATURE] Claude Cowork 3P’s managedMcpServers should support glob-syntax for toolPolicy

Problem Statement

We are using Claude Desktop 3P with Cowork with our litellm gateway.

Many of the managedMcpServers that we deploy to our users have a lot of tools and many of them are regularly being updated.

We can’t whitelist each and every tool across all the mcp servers, and since this is an enterprise deployment, most of them are internal mcp servers and we are good to allow all of the tools anyway.

Proposed Solution

Can we have a feature to allow all tools from each mcp server instead of the current toolPolicy which requires each tool to be individually named.

Either a glob syntax such as toolPolicy: {“*”: “allow”} or just a string toolPolicy: “allow”

Thanks!

Alternative Solutions

For now, one option we are considering is to pre-generate the toolPolicy for all tools in each mcp server. However, this is not ideal as the mcp servers are owned by different teams and are regularly being updated.
