This sounds like a bug; the primary toolbox and workflow editor toolbox should reflect the same set of tools (exception being workflow-specific control steps, etc). I've created a trello card to track this issue here: https://trello.com/c/3TxFHkYR That said, do note the warning on the dynamic toolbox filters page: [image: <!>] Filters will only hide Tools from the User Interface, they are still available and can be made visible by means of HTML manipulation. That said these feature is not a security feature, it is intended to separate multiple groups of Tools and simplify the ToolBox<https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/ToolBox> .

I'm running the stable copy of galaxy and noticed that some custom, administrative tools (and otherwise tools which should be restricted in access due to licensing/etc.) were showing up in normal user's toolboxes inside the workflow editor.
I feel that this is a bug, as the tool filters should be applied globally and not just in terms of what tools users are restricted from seeing in the normal toolbox.
For me, this presents a problem as I strongly believe any administrative tools that exist should leak as little information as possible--not their entire set of options and associated documentation. Additionally, that sort of information leakage isn't acceptable by my organisation's policies.
Do I have my instance misconfigured or is this an actual bug? I have my galaxy configured according to https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/Access%20Control
