Visual Flow Orchestration in Claude Desktop

Use the `list_chatflows` and `get_chatflow_details` tools to inspect your existing pipelines without leaving your chat. You can see exactly how your data moves through your nodes. Trigger live inference by calling `execute_chatflow_prediction` directly from the input bar. It keeps your testing loop tight by removing the need to switch between the browser and your editor.

Manage Vector Data and Variables

Push fresh content into your databases using `upsert_vector_data` whenever you need to update your RAG context. It keeps your knowledge base current without manual exports. Check your active environment settings with `list_flow_variables` to ensure your prompts reflect the latest logic. You can see how your system state evolves in real-time.

System Introspection for FlowiseAI

Verify your environment using `get_server_version` to make sure your MCP server matches your local deployment. It prevents version mismatch errors during critical tasks. Audit your stored credentials and external tools with `list_flowise_credentials` and `list_external_tools`. This ensures your agent has the right access levels to perform its job.
