Frequently asked questions
How do I check the security score of a specific vendor?
Use the get_vendor tool and provide the Vendor ID. Your agent will retrieve the complete security profile, including the overall score and metadata for that vendor.
Can I see all active risks across my entire account?
Yes! Use the list_account_risks query. This retrieves all active security risks detected across your own digital infrastructure (BreachSight).
Is it possible to monitor data breaches affecting our employees?
Absolutely. Use the list_identity_breaches query to retrieve data on identity breaches affecting your workforce, helping you take proactive security measures.
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.
