Connect an Agent never says what an assistant can do once connected, or whether the connection worked

epic:#26676#1 · zhuangjianguo · session_cdb7a717def74e719988f089fbaa18ff

Filing gate: ③ the maintainer's direct order. Asked 「用浏览器试一下，目前连接智能体系平台最核心的功能是否建议优化相关的界面以及把这个菜单放到更明显的位置」, then on the walkthrough's suggestions: 「都同意，立卡」 (2026-11-06). Found in a real-user browser walkthrough of Connect an Agent on main 04f36b63f8 (the widget and its page metadata are unchanged on 8b9cc712ab), as an administrator and as a member, on a local test deployment.

Business reason. The people this page is for do not know what MCP is. They need to hear what the assistant will be able to do for them before they connect, and to see that it worked after. Today the copy speaks of MCP, OAuth 2.1 and Streamable HTTP, and coming back after connecting looks exactly like before.

Reader. The UI lane dev, in ui/packages/app-shell/src/console/connect/ConnectAgentWidget.tsx (the endpoint card, lines 236-258) and its connectAgent.* strings in ui/packages/i18n/src/locales/zh.ts and en.ts. The "it worked" line reads the same records as #30894.

Duplicates. Searched connect agent in:title (23 hits) and Connect an Agent home (373); #24432 (closed) changed the copy to say "this system", nothing explains what an assistant can do or confirms a connection.

Measured

The page opens with 「本系统的 MCP 端点」 and a paragraph on OAuth 2.1 and row-level security; no sentence says what an assistant can do.
Connected with a test API key: the server offers 12 tools (list_objects, describe_object, validate_expression, query_records, aggregate_records, get_record, create_record, update_record, delete_record, list_actions, run_action, resume_run) and 6 prompts.
After an authorization and a connected key, the page shows the same content as before.

Expected

At the top, two plain sentences: the assistant can look up, create, change and delete the records you are allowed to, and run actions, always as you. Then two or three example requests to paste into the client, such as 「列出我能看到的对象」.
Once the person has connected, the page says so: which assistant, and when it last made a call. With nothing connected yet, it says what to try first.
Protocol words (MCP, OAuth 2.1, Streamable HTTP) stay only where a client's own form asks for them.

⛔ Not a claim.

From the maintainer's Connect an Agent walkthrough (「都同意，立卡」, 2026-11-06). The maintainer called it the platform's most central feature. p2: it is how a person reaches and uses that feature.

Remainder:

Expected 2: once someone has connected, the page says which assistant and when it last made a call. That reads the records The OAuth consent page promises you can revoke access from your account settings, but no page lists the AI assistants you authorized #30894 part 1 lists (ui seat 3, in flight). Start it after that lands.
Expected 3 leftover: the page-header subtitle in packages/mcp/src/connect-ui.ts ("any MCP-capable AI client …") and its pages.connect_agent.subtitle translations in packages/platform-objects/src/apps/translations (source-hashed). They sit outside the ui surface.
