Concrete capability record

Data, retrieval, actions, identity, and operating limits

A field-by-field summary of what the reviewed first-party references actually support. Publisher update dates and BYO-UI review dates are shown separately below.

01 · Records and state owned

02 · Data you can retrieve

Query Company and Relationship data; create or update CTAs, Success Plans and tasks; log Timeline entries; generate account briefs and work with Scorecards

03 · Actions and write paths

Gainsight CS's first-party MCP/agent surface includes state-changing tools in the documented capability area: Query Company and Relationship data; create or update CTAs, Success Plans and tasks; log Timeline entries; generate account briefs and work with Scorecards. The audit did not enumerate every mutation; verify the current tool catalog and require explicit confirmation for consequential actions.

04 · Authentication and permissions

For Gainsight CS, the audited authentication model is: Authentication model is documented by the vendor; inspect the cited source before implementation. The effective permission model is: Existing vendor identity, account, tenant, and permission controls should be treated as the authorization boundary. Reconfirm the cited first-party source before implementation.
