How do I find my Aliyun AppCode?

Log in to the [Aliyun Console](https://market.console.aliyun.com/), go to 'Purchased Services', and select an API subscription. Your unique AppCode will be displayed in the API details or application management section.

Do I need to subscribe to each API individually?

Yes. Before calling a specific API via this server, you must have an active subscription (often with a free tier) for that service in the Aliyun Market to use your AppCode.

Can I use this for any provider on the market?

This server uses the standard `Authorization: APPCODE` header, which is supported by the vast majority of APIs on the Aliyun Cloud Market. Some high-security official services might require AK/SK signatures which are not the primary focus of this connector.

Aliyun API Market / 阿里云云市场 + CrewAI FAQ

Common questions about integrating Aliyun API Market / 阿里云云市场 MCP Server with CrewAI.

How does CrewAI discover and connect to MCP tools?

CrewAI connects to MCP servers lazily. when the crew starts, each agent resolves its MCP URLs and fetches the tool catalog via the standard tools/list method. This means tools are always fresh and reflect the server's current capabilities. No tool schemas need to be hardcoded.

Can different agents in the same crew use different MCP servers?

Yes. Each agent has its own mcps list, so you can assign specific servers to specific roles. For example, a reconnaissance agent might use a domain intelligence server while an analysis agent uses a vulnerability database server.

What happens when an MCP tool call fails during a crew run?

CrewAI wraps tool failures as context for the agent. The LLM receives the error message and can decide to retry with different parameters, fall back to a different tool, or mark the task as partially complete. This resilience is critical for production workflows.

Can CrewAI agents call multiple MCP tools in parallel?

CrewAI agents execute tool calls sequentially within a single reasoning step. However, you can run multiple agents in parallel using process=Process.parallel, each calling different MCP tools concurrently. This is ideal for workflows where separate data sources need to be queried simultaneously.

Can I run CrewAI crews on a schedule (cron)?

Yes. CrewAI crews are standard Python scripts, so you can invoke them via cron, Airflow, Celery, or any task scheduler. The crew.kickoff() method runs synchronously by default, making it straightforward to integrate into existing pipelines.
