Can I get code remediation details directly in conversational chat?

Yes! If you ask your AI: `fetch finding details for ID '391' on the 'PaymentGateway' app`, it will query Veracode and describe exactly what caused the vulnerability (e.g. CWE-79) and provide remediation context natively inside your text editor or UI.

Are both Sandbox and Policy findings merged intelligently?

The tool endpoints mirror Veracode's structure natively. You can query your `list_sandboxes` specifically, keeping your sandbox data accurately separated from your main application's formal risk profile and finding charts.

Can I permanently delete unused legacy applications from Veracode via AI chat?

Yes. The `deleteApplicationTool` is included. By providing the specific GUID of the application, the agent can irrevocably remove the AppSec profile along with all linked analyses, findings, and history, streamlining data hygiene.

Veracode + Claude Desktop FAQ

Common questions about integrating Veracode 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.
