Re-auth Troubleshooting and Recovery
Common Symptoms
- MCP calls fail with
invalid_token. - Client repeatedly asks for browser login.
- Session works briefly, then fails during long runs.
Fast Recovery
- Confirm the MCP server config is correct (
mcp list/getin your client). - Run explicit re-login for the server.
- Retry a read-only call first.
- Resume the interrupted workflow from the failed step.
What to Capture for Bug Reports
- Timestamp of failure (UTC)
- Client and version
- Server endpoint
- Error payload (redacted)
- Whether refresh was expected but did not occur
Resume Prompt
Resume from the failed step using existing successful results from this session. Do not rerun completed steps.
