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

Projects and environments, feature flags and targeting rules, AgentControl configurations, and observability data including logs, traces, errors and dashboards.

02 · Data you can retrieve

Retrieve and evaluate flag/configuration state and query supported observability data for authorized projects and environments.

03 · Actions and write paths

Create, update and delete flags and AgentControl configurations when authorized. Production targeting, rollout and deletion changes should require review and rollback planning.

04 · Authentication and permissions

The hosted server uses OAuth; the local server uses a scoped API token. LaunchDarkly roles, projects, environments and token permissions define effective access.

05 · Monitoring, approval, and recovery

Treat production flag changes as runtime-control changes: require environment selection, change review, progressive rollout, auditability and a tested rollback path.

06 · Gaps and implementation limits

Hosted MCP is unavailable in LaunchDarkly federal and EU environments; local deployment, token scope and environment targeting differ and must be configured carefully.

Agent access

MCP and adjacent posture

Verified first-party provider MCPLaunchDarkly-hosted OAuth MCP plus local server optionsCurrent documented service

Role: provider

Read scope: Feature flags and targeting configuration, AgentControl configurations, and observability data such as logs, traces, errors and dashboards for authorized projects and environments.

Write scope: Create, evaluate, modify and delete feature flags and AgentControl configurations when the token or OAuth grant permits it; observability tools are query-oriented.

Authentication: OAuth for the hosted MCP server; scoped LaunchDarkly API token for the local server.

Approval boundary: Consequential writes should require explicit review; use vendor confirmation controls where available.

Protocol does not erase product boundaries.

Confirm the current tool catalog, plan, region, scopes, rate limits, terms, and write behavior before implementation.

Evidence and dates

First-party references, with publisher and review dates separated

“Publisher updated” is shown only when the page exposes an update date. “BYO-UI reviewed” records when this research checked the reference. A missing publisher date is reported as missing—not replaced with the review date.
