Frequently asked questions
Can I trigger a scan for just one specific library?
Yes! Use the scan_library tool and provide the specific Library ID. The agent will trigger a targeted scan to detect new or changed content in that folder only.
How do I check if my API key is still valid?
You can run the check_authkey_expires tool. It will return the exact expiration timestamp for your current API key, helping you avoid service interruptions.
Can I refresh my entire collection at once?
Absolutely. Use the scan_all_libraries tool to trigger a global scan across all configured libraries in your Kavita instance.
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.
