Frequently asked questions
Can I create courses and enrol students?
Yes. Create courses with full metadata, then enrol users with specific role IDs (student, teacher, manager).
How does Moodle authentication work?
Moodle requires your Site URL and an API Token (wstoken). The token is passed as a query parameter to the Web Service REST endpoint.
Can I retrieve student grades?
Yes. Retrieve grade items and results for any user within a specific course using their course and user IDs.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add --transport http "" 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.
