Cline BeaconMFG – China Supplier Directory answer_sourcing

How to: Cline BeaconMFG – China Supplier Directory answer_sourcing

client:Cline transport:streamable-http tool:answer_sourcing

Add BeaconMFG – China Supplier Directory to Cline

  1. 01

    Open ~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "beacon-mfg-mcp": {
      "url": "https://beacon-mfg.pages.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Cline.

  2. 03

    Ask for something answer_sourcing does. Cline lists the server's tools on connect and calls answer_sourcing itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that BeaconMFG – China Supplier Directory's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Cline's MCP Servers pane edits this file for you if you would rather not find it. Cline docs

Set these first

BeaconMFG – China Supplier Directory will not start until these are set, so answer_sourcing never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 14 November 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
