Can my AI automatically find the 'Probable' lineup for a specific club to avoid injured players?

Yes! Use the `list_probable_players` tool combined with `list_players_by_club`. Your agent will filter the official Globo data to return only athletes currently marked with the 'Probable' status, ensuring your picks are safe.

How do I identify 'Bargains' or cheap players for value appreciation (valorização)?

Simply ask the agent to run the `list_cheap_players` action. It will retrieve a curated list of athletes priced below 5 cartoletas, perfect for teams with a tight budget or those looking to increase their total wealth.

Does the integration allow tracking the performance of my friends' teams in real-time?

Yes. Using the `get_user_team_by_slug` tool, your agent can fetch the current round's points and total value for any team using its unique slug, allowing for direct competitive comparisons.

Cartola FC (Fantasy Football) + Claude Desktop FAQ

Common questions about integrating Cartola FC (Fantasy Football) MCP Server with Claude Desktop.

How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?

When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.

What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?

Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.

Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?

Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.

Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?

Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.

Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?

Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
