Frequently asked questions
Can I create and move cards across board columns?
Yes. Create new cards in any column, move them across workflow stages, update details, and archive completed cards. Track card history and activity.
Does KanbanTool require a subdomain?
Yes. Each KanbanTool account has a unique subdomain (e.g., your-team). Provide the subdomain and API Token. Bearer token against https://{subdomain}.kanbantool.com/api/v3.
Can I monitor WIP limits and identify bottlenecks?
Yes. Track how many cards are in each column relative to WIP limits. Identify bottleneck columns where work is accumulating beyond limits.
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query KanbanTool tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
