# AI Access & MCP

> Authenticate AI Identities and authorize explicit target permissions through the MCP Bridge.

# AI Access & MCP

AI Access separates **authentication** from **authorization**.

```text theme={null}
supported OAuth / credential
→ verified AI Identity
→ AI Access policy
→ Permission Object / Group
→ approved target
```

A display name alone is never authentication.

## AI Identity

```text theme={null}
set ai-identity <NAME>
show ai-identities
show ai-identity <NAME>
```

Interactive AI uses OAuth Authorization Code verification where supported. Automation/custom AI can use OAuth Client Credentials where supported.

## Permission Objects

Examples include host-info, process-read, file-read, command-exec, file-write, file-upload, and file-download.

A true read-only permission set does not include command execution.

## AI Access Rule

```text theme={null}
set permission-object read-only permissions host-info,process-read,file-read
set ai-access claude-prod mode whitelist source claude destination production-servers permission read-only enabled
test ai-access source claude destination production-servers permission read-only
```

AI Access Rules are not ordered and have no per-rule action. AI authentication remains mandatory even when policy enforcement is disabled.

The v2.4 target uses a server-side MCP Bridge over authenticated HTTPS. MCP does not bypass Agent identity, AI Access policy, or target OS permissions. Remote Services and SSH are not prerequisites for approved AI operations.
