Research direction
Start with the 0.4.1 release note and the user-defined-tool creation flow, then trace how the 403 response is surfaced. Clarify that UDT availability depends on server-side permission, or improve the message shown for this denial; the wording should no longer imply availability on public servers such as usegalaxy.org.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
The 0.4.1 release note says "User-defined tools run again on Galaxy 26.0 servers." A user reasonably read that as "I can use UDTs on my usegalaxy.org connection," but creating a UDT there fails with:
403: User is not allowed to run unprivileged tools (err_code: 403005)
UDTs depend on server/account permissions and aren't generally enabled for unprivileged users on public servers, but the note reads as broad availability. Suggest clarifying the wording (and/or surfacing a clearer in-app message on the 403) so users know UDTs require server-side permission.
