Frequently asked questions
Can I search for movies on TMDB before adding them to my library?
Yes! Use the lookup_movie tool with a search term. The agent will return potential matches from TMDB, which you can then add using add_movie.
How do I check if I have enough disk space for new downloads?
Simply ask the agent to run the get_disk_space tool. It will provide a list of all connected drives and their available capacity.
Is it possible to remove a movie and its files from the disk simultaneously?
Yes. When using the delete_movie tool, you can set the deleteFiles parameter to true to ensure the media is wiped from your storage.
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.
