TL;DR

Adds endpoint-attributed MCP observation support so that inspected MCP tool calls are logged with bounded identity (device, app key, server label, tool name, decision) sourced from the gateway rather than payload-supplied headers.

What changed?

  • Introduced MCPObservation struct and mcpObservationKey context key in a new mcpobservation.go file. SetMCPObservation allows callers to attach endpoint attribution to a BifrostContext, and applyMCPObservation writes that attribution onto an MCPToolLog entry, including snapshotting the observation to prevent aliasing across async log entries.
  • applyMCPObservation is now called in both PreMCPHook and PostMCPHook, ensuring attribution is applied to both pending and final log entries.
  • MCPToolLogEntry in the UI type definitions gains device_id, app_key, decision, and source fields.
  • The MCP logs column renderer now falls back to app_key when app is absent, so endpoint-attributed entries display the correct app icon and name.

How to test?

  1. Attach an MCPObservation via SetMCPObservation before an MCP tool call is processed.
  2. Verify that the resulting MCPToolLog entries (both pre-hook and post-hook) contain the correct DeviceID, AppKey, Decision, ToolName, ServerLabel, Source, and MetadataParsed["inspection"] values.
  3. Run TestMCPObservationSnapshot to confirm that mutating the observation after the pre-hook call does not retroactively change the pending log entry's decision, while the final log entry reflects the updated value.
  4. In the UI, confirm that MCP log rows attributed via app_key (without app) render the correct app icon and label.

Why make this change?

MCP tool calls routed through an edge endpoint need to be attributed to the inspecting endpoint's identity rather than relying on client-supplied governance headers, which can be spoofed or absent. This change ensures that enforcement decisions and device/app attribution are stamped onto log entries from a trusted source, and that async log entries each carry an independent snapshot of that attribution.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • MCP tool execution can proceed when explicitly authorized for the requested client and tool, while still respecting required headers.
    • MCP logs now show richer metadata, attribution, source details, argument previews, status descriptions, timing, and application recognition.
    • Added filters for users, teams, customers, business units, projects, and devices.
    • Log details provide improved navigation, copying, linked scopes, and collapsible information.
    • Completed MCP tool logs can be queued for asynchronous processing.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved handling of missing or invalid timestamps, application identifiers, and status values.

Walkthrough

MCP execution authorization now validates approved client and tool pairs before bypassing the governance allowlist. MCP logs support additional metadata, attribution filters, asynchronous enqueueing, expanded persistence coverage, and richer table and detail presentation.

Changes

MCP execution authorization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Authorization context and governance enforcement
plugins/governance/mcpauthorization.go, plugins/governance/main.go, plugins/governance/mcpauthorization_test.go
The request context stores approved client/tool pairs. Governance checks require an exact match. Tests cover invalid identities, unapproved targets, and required-header precedence.

MCP log pipeline and search

Layer / File(s) Summary
Log contracts and asynchronous enqueueing
ui/lib/types/logs.ts, framework/logstore/tables.go, plugins/logging/writer.go
MCP log types and stored records include additional metadata. The logger queues completed MCP logs through the configured callback.
Filter transport and storage
transports/bifrost-http/handlers/logging.go, framework/logstore/rdb.go, ui/lib/store/apis/mcpLogsApi.ts
User, team, customer, business-unit, project, and device filters flow from request parsing through API serialization and log-store queries.
Persistence and query validation
framework/logstore/*_test.go, transports/bifrost-http/handlers/logging_test.go
SQLite and PostgreSQL coverage verifies MCP persistence, attribution filters, aggregation, pagination, ranking limits, roots-only searches, tool-call names, malformed history, indexes, and content searches.

MCP log presentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Presentation utilities and table columns
ui/lib/utils/mcpLogPresentation.ts, ui/app/workspace/mcp-logs/views/columns.tsx, ui/components/logAttributionCell.tsx, ui/lib/constants/logs.ts
The table classifies statuses, previews arguments, formats timestamps and latency, resolves applications from app or app_key, and renders attribution values.
Filter state and controls
ui/app/workspace/mcp-logs/page.tsx, ui/components/filters/mcpFilterSidebar.tsx, ui/lib/store/apis/mcpLogsApi.ts
URL state and API requests carry the new filters. The sidebar provides clearable attribution sections and an unknown status option.
MCP log details presentation
ui/app/workspace/mcp-logs/views/mcpLogDetailsSheet.tsx, ui/app/_fallbacks/enterprise/lib/*
The details sheet displays status, policy, identifiers, application, source-aware timing, scopes, server, user, and device metadata through shared components. OSS fallbacks provide device and operating-system rendering.

The Device stat renders the tool name and reuses an existing data-testid.

The Device HeroStat checks displayLog.device_id, then renders displayLog.tool_name with a link to the tool filter. The device identity is never shown. The sub line below it does show device platform data, so the card is internally inconsistent.

The link also repeats data-testid="mcplogdetails-tool-name-link", which is already used at line 276. Playwright strict-mode locators fail when a testid matches two elements.

Render the device identity and use a distinct testid.

Close the SQLite test store in newTestSQLiteStore.

The helper creates logs.db below t.TempDir() and returns an open *RDBLogStore. The nine callers in framework/logstore/rdbperf_test.go do not close it. On Windows, t.TempDir() reports an error when cleanup cannot remove the open database file. The repository’s CI currently runs Ubuntu only, so this is a Windows portability issue rather than a current CI failure.

Register cleanup in the helper:

Proposed fix
 	if err != nil {
 		t.Fatalf("newSqliteLogStore() error = %v", err)
 	}
+	t.Cleanup(func() {
+		if err := store.Close(context.Background()); err != nil {
+			t.Errorf("Close() error = %v", err)
+		}
+	})
 	return store
