Frequently asked questions
How do I find my HID Origo Client ID and Secret?
Log in to the HID Origo Management Portal, navigate to the System Accounts section, and create a new system account. You will be provided with a Client ID and Client Secret for that account.
What is the Organization ID?
The Organization ID is a unique UUID that identifies your company in the HID Origo cloud. You can find it in the Management Portal under the Organization settings or profile section.
Can I send mobile identity invitations via the AI agent?
Yes! Use the create_enrollment_invitation tool. You must provide a JSON string containing the userId and the partNumber for the mobile identity you wish to issue.
Is the integration secure for access control data?
Absolutely. The integration uses industry-standard OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials over HTTPS. Your credentials are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.
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.
