What Workbench can do
Workbench has backend capabilities to:- List enabled MCP providers.
- List folders from an enabled file-storage provider.
- List files from a selected provider folder.
- Import selected provider files into the current Workbench chat.
- Import into Workbench for chat context, comparison, summarization, or template filling.
- Import into Vault for durable processing, extraction, review, workflow triggers, and eventual publication to Legislate.
Supported provider shapes
Provider capabilities are explicit. A provider can support document creation, folder listing, file listing, file download, or a subset of those capabilities. Google Drive currently supports document creation plus folder/file browsing and download. SharePoint supports folder/file browsing and download. Notion currently supports page creation.When Workbench should use MCP providers
Use MCP provider routing when the user explicitly names an external source, connected tool, integration, or MCP provider. Native TextMine requests about Vault, Agents, Workflows, Playbooks, Document Types, Records, or Workbench skills should stay on their native capabilities. Good Workbench prompts include:- “Import the latest supplier agreement from Google Drive and compare it with this Vault document.”
- “List files in the SharePoint finance folder and bring the lease template into this chat.”
- “Use the uploaded file as context, then save the final version into the Finance Vault.”
