Frequently asked questions
Can the agent fetch the exact mock server endpoints for one of my APIs?
Yes. You can use the get_doc_url capability to retrieve both the public facing documentation url and the private mock server endpoint string. Your agent can immediately use this url to simulate requests internally using other modules or tests.
Am I able to update the Blueprint markup completely through the agent?
Absolutely. Instruct your AI agent to fetch the blueprint with get_api. Once read into context, prompt the agent to make your desired changes (e.g. 'Add a new POST route for user creation'). Then, instruct it to use publish_blueprint to upload the newly revised markdown.
How does the team feature list function mapping work?
Apiary enables collaboration. Utilizing list_teams, the agent finds the slugs of your organizations. Then, using list_team_apis, it fetches all collaborative APIs available for that precise team. This hierarchy avoids hallucinating random endpoint repositories.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
