Frequently asked questions
Can I create a bot to send automated messages in a channel?
Yes! You can use the create_bot tool to register a new bot and then use send_bot_message to trigger automated interactions within your chat channels.
How do I handle disruptive users who violate community rules?
The server provides several moderation tools: mute_user to silence them, block_user to prevent interaction, and ban_user to remove them from channels entirely.
Is it possible to manage large-scale public chat rooms?
Absolutely. Use create_open_channel to build public channels that support millions of users, and list_open_channels to keep track of your active public environments.
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.
