add-tools
Add tools to your agent and grant required permissions in databricks.yml. Use when: (1) Adding MCP servers, Genie spaces, vector search, or UC functions to agent, (2) Permission errors at runtime, (3) User says 'add tool', 'connect to', 'grant permission', (4) Configuring databricks.yml resources.

2 low severity findings. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
What this means
The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.
Why it was flagged
The required runtime workflow fetches MCP tool definitions from a specified Databricks MCP endpoint (e.g., `mcp_client.get_tools()` using `url=f"{host}/api/2.0/mcp/genie/... "`), so an outsider who can author content served through that MCP interface could cause the LLM to ingest free text tool data.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The skill constructs and calls MCP server endpoints at runtime (e.g., f"{host}/api/2.0/mcp/genie/01234567-89ab-cdef" and https://mcp-my-server.cloud.databricks.com/mcp) via mcp_client.get_tools(), which fetches remote tool definitions that can directly control agent prompts or execute code.
