Frequently asked questions
Can my agent search for specific medical specialists in a city?
Yes. Use the 'rechercher_praticiens' tool. Provide the specialty (e.g., 'médecin généraliste') and the city. The agent will retrieve matching practitioner profiles from Doctolib's active directory natively.
How do I book a consultation slot through the agent?
First, use 'disponibilites' to find free slots for a doctor. Then, provide the practitioner ID, the chosen slot ID, and your email to the 'prendre_rendez_vous' tool to confirm your reservation in the database.
Can I see all medical practices connected to my account?
Absolutely. Use the 'lister_cabinets' tool. Your agent will perform a structural extraction of localized entity bounds, showing you all physical office locations managed within your Doctolib partner environment.
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).
