Frequently asked questions
Can I check if a specific item is available for a date range?
Yes. Use check_item_availability with the Item ID, start date, and end date (YYYY-MM-DD format) to verify if the item is free for that period. Use list_availability for a complete overview of all items and their current availability status.
Can I track overdue rentals that haven't been returned?
Yes. The list_overdue_hires tool retrieves all rentals past their return date with customer info, item details, and days overdue. Use list_hires_by_status with 'overdue' status for the same result, or filter by 'active', 'returned', or 'pending'.
Can I create a new rental booking through the AI agent?
Yes. Use create_hire with a JSON payload containing customer ID, item IDs, start date, end date, and any special instructions. Use list_items to browse available equipment and list_customers to find the customer. Use create_customer to add a new customer if needed.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
