Source changes
set_machine_config_propertiesMCP tool, which sets properties in a machine part's configuration by dotted path (a property that comes from a fragment becomes afragment_modsentry).set_machine_configMCP tool, which replaces a part's complete saved configuration and refuses a stalerevisionfromread_machine_config.Both register through
writeTool(..., true)(destructive) inmcpserver/tools_machine_config_add.goand carryMeta: {"com.viam/stability": "experimental"}. App deploys continuously, so both are live.Documents: no ticket key found (neither PR title nor commit carries one).
Docs changes
static/include/app/mcpserver/generated/mcp-tools-table.md: adds both tools under Write (destructive), in alphabetical order.docs/reference/mcp/_index.md: one paragraph after the favorites note saying both tools are experimental and may change or be removed, and what each one does. The table has no column for stability, so the note goes in the prose.Open agent PR #5441 edits a different line of the same table (
