- **Test server connectivity**: Verify MCP servers start correctly before relying on them in agent workflows.
- **Use the MCP allowlist (experimental)**: In high-security environments, the `MCP_ALLOWLIST` feature flag lets you validate MCP servers against a configured registry, blocking unrecognized servers from loading. This is an experimental feature for enterprise environments requiring strict control over which MCP servers are permitted.
### Organization Policy for Third-Party MCP Servers
GitHub organizations can enforce a policy that restricts which third-party MCP servers members are permitted to use. When this policy is active:
- Copilot CLI **enforces** the policy for all users in the organization.
- A **warning is shown** if a configured MCP server is blocked by the policy, so you know which servers are restricted before expecting them to work.
If you see a warning that an MCP server is blocked, contact your organization administrator to find out which servers are on the allowlist, or switch to an approved alternative.
## Common Questions
**Q: Do MCP servers run in the cloud?**
