Frequently asked questions
Can the agent start and stop timers on tasks without me opening GitScrum?
Yes! Use start_timer with any task UUID to begin tracking, and stop_timer to end it. Only one timer can be active at a time. Use list_tasks or my_today_tasks first to find the task you want to track. The agent handles the complete flow in seconds.
Can I get a standup summary without attending the meeting?
Absolutely. Use standup_summary for the daily overview, completed_yesterday for what the team shipped, standup_blockers for current impediments, and team_status for per-member breakdown. It's your entire standup in 4 quick queries.
Can the agent flag projects that are over budget?
Yes. Use projects_at_risk to see all projects approaching or exceeding their budget threshold. Then drill into any project with budget_overview for total vs consumed, budget_burndown for trend analysis, and budget_alerts for active threshold warnings.
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.
