Frequently asked questions
Can I train a bot by adding web pages to its knowledge base?
Yes! The add_knowledge_url action accepts a Bot ID and a URL. Botsonic will crawl the page and add its content to the bot's training data. Use list_knowledge_base to review all sources (URLs, documents, files) currently training a specific bot.
Can I retrieve leads captured by my chatbot during customer interactions?
Yes. The list_leads tool retrieves all leads collected by a specific bot during conversations, including contact details, conversation context, and capture timestamp. This is ideal for syncing chatbot-qualified leads into your CRM.
How can I measure the performance of my chatbots?
Use get_bot_analytics with the Bot ID. It returns conversation count, total messages, resolution rate (percentage of conversations resolved without human handoff), and customer satisfaction scores. Compare across bots to identify which ones need KB improvements.
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.
Server not appearing after restart
Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).
Authentication error
Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.
Tools not showing in chat
Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
