# Tool visibility

You can change tool visibility at any time in the **Danger zone** settings at the **bottom of your tool package page**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The default visibility is **private.** If you change to **open source**, everybody will be able to see your source code! Be careful.
{% endhint %}

Tool packages come in three flavors;

* `private`&#x20;
  * Can only be executed by API keychains created by your organization
    * Thus can only be used by agents inside your organization, because agents have keychains scoped to the organization they're installed to
    * e.g. Public agent with private tool installed will not be able to execute it
  * Source code is **not visible**
  * Secrets can **not be shared** with these tools
* `public`&#x20;
  * Can be executed by any API keychain
    * And thus, any agent at any time
  * Source code is **not visible**
  * Secrets can **not be shared** with these tools
* `open_source`&#x20;
  * Can be executed by any API keychain
    * And thus, any agent at any time
  * Source code is **visible**
  * Secrets **can be shared** with these tools, as they are inspectable

Select the new visibility you'd like and then confirm, and your package details will be updated.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.superuser.app/hosted-tools/managing-tools/tool-visibility.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
