Good to know

Your agent, permissions, connections, and deployment determine availability. Web, GitHub, and Orchestration are hidden from the ordinary menu but support mentions. Workspace-created toolkits have their own names. Chrome Browser uses the Chrome extension. Desktop Computer requires a connected, armed desktop app. Computer Use targets a Computer asset. Enabling a toolkit does not grant asset access. Agent mailbox and calendar writes require approval; sending only to you can skip the send prompt.
