Frequently asked questions
Can I progress an order to 'Shipped' natively inside Cursor?
Yes! Provide the order token context to the AI (or ask it to fetch recent orders) and instruct: 'Mark order SNIP-1234 as Shipped'. The agent will call the update_order_status endpoint, and your Snipcart dashboard will instantly sync up the new status.
Can the AI distinguish my test vs live orders?
The distinction entirely relies on which Secret API Key you supply. Snipcart has dedicated keys for 'Live' mode and 'Test' mode. Whichever key is saved in your credential injection config governs the space the AI operates within.
How do I check a customer's total spending history using LLMs?
Tell your AI to 'Look up the customer John Doe in Snipcart and fetch their details'. The agent first polls list_customers for the user directory ID, and then passes the match to get_customer_details to return their detailed transaction history completely synthesized for you.
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.
