Best Practices

Effective Prompting

  • Be specific with source names and field names.
  • Provide context about what you're trying to achieve.
  • Ask for explanations to learn best practices.
  • Iterate based on the assistant's responses.

Model Selection

  • Choose a model that is capable of tool calling and reasoning to make sure it can handle more complex tasks. Some more complex tasks might require a frontier model (Claude Sonnet, Gemini Pro) and might not be fulfilled correctly by a smaller, faster model (Claude Haiku, Gemini Flash).
  • Choose a model with enough context length if you want to fetch large amounts of data from Validio for analysis within the LLM (for example for listing many incidents).

Authentication

  • The Validio MCP server will inherit the permissions and access of the user account you use to connect to it.
  • Depending on your MCP client, the AI assistant may force you to re-authenticate with the Validio MCP at certain times. Make sure you are always authenticated to avoid errors when using the Validio MCP.

Security

  • Access and mutations: Disable the qraphql-execute tool to prevent the AI assistant from mutating or deleting resources.
