Frequently asked questions
How do I see the latest messages in my rooms?
Use the sync_client tool. It synchronizes your local state with the homeserver, retrieving all new events, messages, and room state changes since your last sync.
Can I search for people on other Matrix servers?
Yes, the search_user_directory tool allows you to search the directory available to your homeserver, helping you find users by their display name or Matrix ID.
Is it possible to manage room settings like the topic or name?
Absolutely. Use set_room_state to update room metadata. You can change the room name, topic, or other state events by providing the correct event_type and body.
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.
