FAQ from VI+ MCP Server
What is the purpose of the .env file?
What is the purpose of the .env file?
The .env file stores the API token required to access the Cisco CVM API. It should contain the RISK_TOKEN variable.
How do I test the API?
How do I test the API?
Run the vi-mcp-test.py script after configuring the .env file with your API token. This script fetches and displays details for a hardcoded CVE ID.
What is MCPO?
What is MCPO?
MCPO (MCP-to-OpenAPI proxy) is a tool that allows you to expose your MCP server as RESTful APIs, making it easier to integrate with existing systems and Open-WebUI.
What is Open-WebUI?
