Features

How each feature converts to syllago's canonical format. See format conversion for what these statuses mean.

Fields

Native frontmatter or config fields this provider exposes. The first column is the provider's own field name; the canonical key column links to syllago's cross-provider equivalent.

Config keyConversionCanonical keySummary
autoApprove Embedded Conversion type: Embedded No canonical equivalent — appended as prose in a conversion notes block so nothing is silently lost. Learn more → Per-server 'autoApprove' field accepting a tool-name array or '*' wildcard to skip user confirmation.
disabled Embedded Conversion type: Embedded No canonical equivalent — appended as prose in a conversion notes block so nothing is silently lost. Learn more → Per-server 'disabled: true' flag deactivating a server without removing its configuration.
disabledTools Embedded Conversion type: Embedded No canonical equivalent — appended as prose in a conversion notes block so nothing is silently lost. Learn more → Per-server 'disabledTools' array suppressing specific tools without disabling the entire server.
url Embedded Conversion type: Embedded No canonical equivalent — appended as prose in a conversion notes block so nothing is silently lost. Learn more → Remote MCP servers configured with 'url' (HTTPS/localhost HTTP) and optional 'headers' map for auth.

Other features

Behaviors, conventions, and capabilities that aren't tied to a single named field — things like path-based activation, discovery rules, and lifecycle behavior.
