Frequently asked questions
How do I get my Snov.io API credentials?
Log in to your Snov.io account at app.snov.io. Click your profile avatar (top right corner). Select the API tab. Your User ID and API Secret are displayed on this page. Copy both values and paste them into the configuration fields below. Free plans include 50 credits/month.
Can I find all emails at a specific company domain?
Yes. Ask your agent 'Find all emails at acme.com' and it returns a list of verified business emails with names, job titles, confidence scores, and the email pattern used at that domain.
Can I set up drip campaigns through the AI agent?
Yes. Your agent can create drip campaigns, add recipients, configure follow-up sequences, and monitor delivery statuses — complete email automation from a single conversation.
Does Snov.io have a free plan?
Yes. Snov.io offers a free trial with 50 credits per month, enough for basic email finding and verification. The API works identically on all plans — credits are the only difference. Upgrade for higher volumes.
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.
