Using Glean
The Glean MCP server exposes a family of tools that let the assistant query the user's company knowledge: documents, people, meetings, email, internal code, the user's activity feed, structured memory, and the knowledge graph. This skill is the entry point. It maps a user's question to the right tool, names the rules that apply across all of them, and links to per-tool reference files that carry the deep syntax.
Where these tools live
The tools listed below come from the user's Glean MCP server connection. Refer to them by their bare names (search, employee_search, meeting_lookup, …) — the assistant resolves them against the active tool inventory.
In the raw MCP tool list, Glean tools appear as mcp__glean_[server-name]__[tool] where [server-name] is the user's configured server identifier (e.g., default, production, acme). The tool suffix after the final __ is always consistent across deployments. Use whatever Glean server is visible in your tool inventory.
If no Glean tools are visible, the user hasn't configured a Glean MCP server for this host. Point them at the Glean MCP setup for their host.
