1. Is this request related to a challenge you're experiencing? Tell me about your story.

hard to formalize this request, so consider this as a brainstorming.

it will be nice if a workflow can be converted in a mcpserver with multi tool assigned.
at the moment 1 workflow = 1 tool
it will be nice to be able to describe in a single WF multiple tool (not sure how to be honest, multiple input? having a special block called 'mcp input' that can be replicated?)

the point is to avoid prolification of tool for "similar" task.

scenario:
i create a workflow that run a few different select, and explain
so the tool i want to add are
-> give me the partition list of table
-> explain me the query
-> give me the biggest table

now, this 3 tools can belong to the same mcp server, if yo uimagine them as a 'perimeter' that in this case is oracle db.
if i have to do 3 workflow, i will end duplicate a lot of work, a lot of config for db conn and generally speaking have multiple place to mantain (change db password in 3 places if needed and so on)

Now, of course db is just an example, but i think there are a few scenario where multiple tool from 1wf could be beneficial in terms of effort for deploy a WF

2. Additional context or comments

hi @crazywoola,

i noticed you flag another issue as duplicate of this one, it seems strange as they don't seems related at all.
on the issue you linked it seems there are issue on agent using tools.

here i am asking the option to publish an mcp server (using a workflow) and deploy multiple function on that mcp server.

Maybe we could remove the "MCP" card from workflows / chatflows and create a MCP server tab where you define the server name and description and you choose the dify workflows / chatflows that you want to expose in that server as tools ?
