Working with your hosted Patchworks MCP server deployment

Introduction

Once your hosted Patchworks MCP server is deployed, it's ready for connection to any AI assistant. However, over time, you may wish to customise your server - perhaps adding or adjusting tools.

If you decide to update the default Patchworks tools for your hosted deployment, you'll need to be aware of your server deployment status. This might be deployed, draft, or inactive - as summarised below.

Status	Summary	Set when...
Deployed	The current 'live' version that's used for any connections to your AI assistant(s). There can only be one deployed version.	You create and deploy a hosted MCP server for the first time. OR You customise tools and then deploy the updated (draft) version.
Draft	A 'work in progress' version that you can customise and deploy. There can only be one draft version.	You choose to create a draft from an existing deployment. OR You choose to undeploy your current Patchworks MCP server.
Inactive	A previously deployed version that has been superseded.	A deployed server exists, and you choose to deploy a draft.
