## π Troubleshooting
If tests fail:
1. **API Key Issues**
- Verify ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is set correctly
- Test key at console.anthropic.com
- Ensure key has vision capabilities
2. **Image Access Issues**
- For URLs: Check internet connectivity
- For local files: Verify absolute path
- Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP
3. **Timeout Issues**
- Reduce iteration count (try 3 instead of 7)
- Check API rate limits
- Verify network stability
4. **Server Not Found**
- Restart Cursor IDE
- Refresh MCP settings
- Check mcp.json syntax
