Frequently asked questions
Can my text AI agent command a voice agent to call a specific person?
Yes! Use the trigger_call tool by providing the Interview ID (Voice Agent) and the Contact ID. The voice AI will immediately execute the outbound call.
Is it possible to read the transcript of what the Voice AI discussed during a call?
Absolutely. By calling the get_call_history tool with a specific Call ID, your agent can extract the entire conversational transcript and analyze the outcome without leaving the interface.
Do I need to manually register contacts in the Thoughtly dashboard before calling them?
No. The integration provides the create_contact tool, allowing your AI to dynamically add new leads to the CRM and immediately initiate a phone call in one fluid workflow.
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
