 In contrast, tools which are defined by the client (i.e. the [`Bash` tool](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/claude-code/settings#tools-available-to-claude) defined by _Claude Code_) cannot be invoked by AI Bridge, and the tool call from the model will be relayed to the client, after which it will invoke the tool.
 
-If you have the `oauth2` and `mcp-server-http` experiments enabled, Coder's own [internal MCP tools](../mcp-server.md) will be injected automatically.
+If you have [Coder MCP Server](../mcp-server.md) enabled, as well as have [`CODER_AIBRIDGE_INJECT_CODER_MCP_TOOLS=true`](../../reference/cli/server#--aibridge-inject-coder-mcp-tools) set, Coder's MCP tools will be injected into intercepted requests.
 
 ### Troubleshooting
 
 - **Too many tools**: should you receive an error like `Invalid 'tools': array too long. Expected an array with maximum length 128, but got an array with length 132 instead`, you can reduce the number by filtering out tools using the allow/deny patterns documented in the [MCP](#mcp) section.
 
-- **Coder MCP tools not being injected**: in order for Coder MCP tools to be injected, the internal MCP server needs to be active. Follow the instructions in the [MCP Server](../mcp-server.md) page to enable it.
+- **Coder MCP tools not being injected**: in order for Coder MCP tools to be injected, the internal MCP server needs to be active. Follow the instructions in the [MCP Server](../mcp-server.md) page to enable it and ensure `CODER_AIBRIDGE_INJECT_CODER_MCP_TOOLS` is set to `true`.
 
 - **External Auth tools not being injected**: this is generally due to the requesting user not being authenticated against the [External Auth](../../admin/external-auth/index.md) app; when this is the case, no attempt is made to connect to the MCP server.
