FAQPage Schema
How do I discover and manage MCP servers from the command line?

You can discover and manage MCP servers using a CLI that lists configured servers, inspects tool schemas, and performs ad-hoc tool calls. It streamlines server discovery and tool invocation for development and operations workflows.

What is MCP server tool invocation and when do I need it?

MCP server tool invocation is the process of calling tools exposed by MCP endpoints. You need it when inspecting tool schemas or performing ad-hoc tool calls against MCP fleets and endpoints during development operations.

Can I run ad-hoc tool calls against MCP endpoints without a full client setup?

Yes, you can perform ad-hoc tool calls directly against MCP endpoints using CLI commands. You call a tool with a command like call server.tool and pass key=value parameters to see immediate results.

Does MCP server management support OAuth authentication flows for HTTP servers?

Yes, MCP server management supports OAuth and authentication flows for HTTP servers. This allows you to securely handle authentication workflows when calling tools against HTTP-based MCP endpoints.

What's the best way to inspect tool schemas and required parameters for MCP servers?

The best way to inspect tool schemas is using a CLI describe workflow that exposes the required parameters for configured MCP servers. This lets you understand tool requirements before performing calls.

Can I apply MCP server management to ad-hoc endpoints and fleets during development?

Yes, you can apply MCP server management to MCP fleets, ad-hoc endpoints, and OAuth workflows during development and operations. It handles server discovery and tool invocation across these environments.
