How do I find my PingCode Client ID and Secret?

Log in to the PingCode Enterprise Backend, navigate to [Credential Management] (凭据管理), and create a new application. Your Client ID and Client Secret will be generated there.

Can I create different types of work items like bugs or stories?

Yes. When using `create_work_item`, you can specify the `type` parameter (e.g., 'task', 'story', 'bug') to ensure the item is correctly categorized in your agile project.

Does this server support wiki documentation?

Yes. You can use `list_wiki_pages` to browse through your documentation repositories and `get_wiki_page` to retrieve the content of specific pages for your AI agent to read.

PingCode + Claude Desktop FAQ

Common questions about integrating PingCode 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.
