Tally MCP

# Tally MCP Server - Debugging Summary ## 🔍 Issues Identified and Fixed ### 1. ✅ **FIXED: Claude Desktop SSE Connection Timeout** **Problem:** Claude Desktop connections were being canceled after ~10 seconds with "outcome: canceled" in Cloudflare logs. **Root Cause:** The worker had a hardcoded 10-minute timeout that was conflicting with connection management: ```typescript // PROBLEMATIC CODE (REMOVED): setTimeout(() => { clearInterval(heartbeatInterval); activeSessions.delete(sessionId); controller.close(); }, 600000); // 10 minute timeout ``` **Solution Implemented:** - ✅ Removed the hardcoded timeout - ✅ Added proper heartbeat interval cleanup - ✅ Enhanced error handling for connection lifecycle - ✅ Added comprehensive logging throughout the SSE implementation **Verification:** ```bash # This now works without premature cancellation curl -H "Accept: text/event-stream" "https://tally-mcp.focuslab.workers.dev/mcp/sse?token=test" --max-time 30 ``` ### 2. 🔍 **IDENTIFIED: Cursor Configuration Issue** **Problem:** Cursor triggers NO server logs, indicating it's not reaching the deployed Worker at all. **Root Cause:** Missing or incorrect MCP configuration in Cursor. **Diagnosis Tool Created:** `test-cursor-config.js` - A script that: - ✅ Checks if `~/.cursor/mcp.json` exists - ✅ Validates configuration format - ✅ Tests server connectivity - ✅ Provides specific fix recommendations **Solution for Users:** 1. **Check Configuration Location:** ```bash # macOS/Linux ls -la ~/.cursor/mcp.json # Windows dir %USERPROFILE%\.cursor\mcp.json ``` 2. **Create/Update Configuration:** ```json { "mcpServers": { "tally-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "tally-mcp-server"], "env": { "TALLY_API_TOKEN": "your_actual_tally_token" } } } } ``` 3. **Restart Cursor Completely:** - Close all Cursor windows - Kill any remaining processes - Restart Cursor ### 3. ✅ **ENHANCED: Comprehensive Logging** **Improvements Made:** - ✅ Request logging with timestamps and user agents - ✅ SSE connection lifecycle tracking - ✅ Session creation and cleanup monitoring - ✅ Heartbeat and error tracking - ✅ Detailed error messages with context **Log Examples:** ``` [2025-06-08T16:43:47.000Z] GET /mcp/sse - User-Agent: python-httpx/0.27.0 SSE endpoint accessed - checking token...
