Frequently asked questions
Can I see the reason why my website went down via AI?
Yes! Use the get_root_cause_analysis tool and provide the Alert ID (PK). Your agent will retrieve the detailed RCA report explaining the failure.
How do I create a new HTTP check to monitor a URL?
Use the create_check action. Provide the name, address (URL), and set the check_type to 'HTTP'. The agent will instantly register the new monitor.
Is it possible to see the performance statistics for a monitor?
Absolutely. Run the get_check_stats query with your Check ID to retrieve performance and uptime metrics for that specific service.
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.
