Short answer

Why is my AI tool execution failing?

Your agent uses this MCP to check if your credentials are still valid and if the necessary tools are active. It identifies exactly which connection is broken so you can fix it. You'll get a clear breakdown of what's working and what isn't.

Diagnostic results

Where every issue lands.

The AI categorizes the results of its diagnostic check into these four areas.

STATUS

Credential health check

The agent checks if your API keys or logins are still active. You'll know immediately if a service is rejecting your agent's requests.

AVAILABILITY

Tool presence check

The agent confirms which tools are actually loaded and ready to use. This tells you if a specific capability is missing from the current session.

LISTING

Resource verification

The agent looks up specific items or services to ensure they exist. This confirms the target you're trying to reach is actually there.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

The agent flags issues it cannot fix, like expired passwords or revoked permissions. You'll receive a specific list of what you need to update manually.

The workflow

What your AI does when the error arrives.

Instead of guessing why a task failed, your agent runs a diagnostic sequence to pinpoint the break.

  1. Check connection health

    The agent verifies that the authentication for your services is still valid and hasn't expired.

    credentials_status
  2. Audit available tools

    The agent scans the environment to see which Model Context Protocol tools are currently active and accessible.

    active_mcps
  3. Verify target resources

    The agent checks the specific service or item you are trying to interact with to ensure it is reachable.

    get_listing
  4. Report the failure

    The agent compares the status of your credentials against the active tools to find the mismatch.

FAQ

How debugging works

  • 01

    Can the AI fix my expired passwords?

    No. The agent can identify that a credential has expired, but you must manually update the password in your provider's settings.

  • 02

    Will the AI change my tool settings?

    No. The agent only reads the status of your credentials and the list of active tools. It cannot modify your configurations.

  • 03

    How does it know which tool is failing?

    It compares the results of the status checks against the list of active tools to see where the connection breaks.

  • 04

    Can it see my private data?

    The agent only accesses the specific data required to check the status or listing of the tools you've authorized.

  • 05

    Does it work with any MCP client?

    Yes, it works with any client that supports the Model Context Protocol, such as Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.
