Frequently asked questions
Can I view balances and recent transactions?
Yes. You can query balances for all accounts and list recent incoming/outgoing transactions.
How does Mercury authentication work?
Mercury uses a Bearer token (API Token) against api.mercury.com/api/v1. Tokens must be generated with read-only scopes.
Can I initiate money transfers via the API?
The standard API token allows read-only access to balances and transactions for security reasons.
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.
