FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I get an Access Token for GetYourGuide?

You must register as a Partner or Distributor. Once approved, you can find your Access Token in the GetYourGuide Integrator Portal.

02

Can I search for activities using coordinates?

Yes! The 'search_travel_activities' tool accepts location strings which can include latitude/longitude coordinates to find tours near a specific point.

03

How do I check if a tour is available on a specific date?

Use the 'check_activity_availability' tool. Provide the Tour ID and an ISO date (YYYY-MM-DD) to see all open slots and vacancies for that day.

04

What is a 'Booking Hash'?

The Booking Hash is a unique alphanumeric identifier for a reservation. You need it to retrieve booking details or to cancel a reservation via the agent.

05

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.

06

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.

07

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.

08

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.

09

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.

10

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).

11

Authentication error

Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.

12

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.
