Can I test how different filters affect search results through my agent?

Yes. Use the `search_filtered` tool by providing a query and specific facet values (e.g., 'color': 'red'). Your agent will return the filtered result set, allowing you to verify that your indexing and category mappings are working correctly.

How do I get AI product recommendations using natural language?

The `search_recs` tool allows your agent to fetch product recommendations based on specific ML logics, such as visual similarity or trending items. Simply ask your agent to show recommendations for a specific context or logic path.

Can I see which products are currently trending across my whole store?

Absolutely. Use the `search_trending` tool to retrieve a baseline query sorted by relevance and sales velocity. Your agent will return the most popular items across your entire catalog, helping you monitor seasonal trends in real-time.

Klevu (E-commerce AI Search) + Claude Desktop FAQ

Common questions about integrating Klevu (E-commerce AI Search) 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.
