THE AI ANGLE
discovering and invoking internal enterprise toolsUber built an MCP Gateway to govern how internal AI agents discover and call over 5,000 tools across 800 servers. The system translates protocols, redacts sensitive data, and controls access. This setup lets engineers manage agent tooling through centralized gateway patterns without changing underlying backend services.
