Compiles daily/weekly executive briefings from multiple data sources: KPIs from dashboards, calendar overview, priority items from direct reports, market news.

Toolkits Needed

You'll need access to these toolkits in your Arcade MCP Gateway:

Setup Guide

  1. Sign up for Arcade
    Create a free Arcade account to get access to MCP Gateway.

  2. Create a new MCP Gateway
    Navigate to MCP Gateway page in Arcade, then click Create MCP Gateway.

    Provide a slug that becomes your MCP URL (this is what LangSmith Fleet will discover automatically):
    Example: If you choose slug my-agent, your MCP URL will be:

    https://api.arcade.dev/mcp/my-agent

  3. Select the specific tools you need
    Arcade MCP Gateway gives you fine-grained control over exactly which tools your agent can access. Select these specific tools from the toolkits:

    • GoogleDocs.CreateDocumentFromText
    • GoogleDocs.GetDocumentAsDocmd
    • GoogleDocs.EditDocument
    • GoogleSlides.CreatePresentation
    • GoogleSlides.GetPresentationAsMarkdown
    • GoogleSlides.CreateSlide
    • Slack.SendMessage
    • Slack.ListConversations
    • Slack.GetMessages
    • GoogleSheets.GetSpreadsheet
    • GoogleSheets.UpdateCells
    • GoogleSheets.CreateSpreadsheet
    • Firecrawl.ScrapeUrl

Why this matters: Instead of granting access to entire toolkits with hundreds of tools, you're selecting only the 13 specific tools this agent actually needs. This precision reduces risk and keeps your agent focused.
