Frequently asked questions
Can I check if a specific chatbot is online via AI?
Yes! Use the get_bot_status tool and provide the Bot ID. Your agent will retrieve the current operational state of that specific bot.
How do I submit data to my bot's contact form using the agent?
Use the submit_contact action. Provide the contact details (name, email, message) in a JSON string. The agent will transmit this data directly to the bot engine.
Is it possible to see which fields my bot expects in its form?
Absolutely. Use the get_samples query. The agent will retrieve sample data based on your bot's configured form fields, helping you understand the required structure.
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.
