Sleep FAQs

Question 1

What is the Sleep tool?

Accepted Answer

The Sleep tool introduces deliberate delays in AI agent workflows, allowing you to control the timing of operations and test eventually consistent systems. It acts as a wait or sleep function within your workflow.

Question 2

How do I configure the Sleep tool?

Accepted Answer

Configure the Sleep tool by adding it to your Cline MCP settings file. You'll need to specify the command to execute the script and the path to the `index.js` file.  Be sure to set the `timeout` parameter to be longer than your longest expected sleep duration.

Question 3

How can I verify the Sleep tool is working correctly?

Accepted Answer

The Sleep tool includes tests that verify its functionality with various durations. Run `npm test` in the repository to execute these tests and confirm the tool is functioning as expected.

Question 4

How do I install the Sleep tool?

Accepted Answer

Installation is simple: use `git clone` to download the repository and then run `npm install` to install the necessary dependencies.

Question 5

Why is the timeout parameter important?

Accepted Answer

The `timeout` parameter in your MCP settings defines the maximum time the server will wait for a response. If you set a timeout shorter than the sleep duration, the operation will fail. Ensure the timeout is always greater than the maximum sleep duration you intend to use.
