FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I trigger a new infrastructure deployment (run) using this server?

Yes. You can use the create_run tool by providing the Workspace ID. You can also subsequently use apply_run or discard_run to manage the lifecycle of that specific execution.

How do I see the output variables from my last successful Terraform apply?

Use the get_state_version_outputs tool with the Workspace ID. It will retrieve all calculated outputs from the current state, such as IP addresses, DNS names, or resource IDs.

Is it possible to list all workspaces across my organization?

Absolutely. Use the list_workspaces tool and provide your organization name. You can also filter the results by name or tags using optional parameters.

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.
