The gateway:
1. Authenticates with your API key
2. Aggregates all available tools from marketplace and custom MCPs
3. Exposes them through 2 simple meta-tools: `search` and `execute`
## Troubleshooting
### Gateway Not Appearing
1. Check that your `claude_desktop_config.json` is valid JSON
2. Verify your API key is correct
3. Restart Claude Desktop completely
4. Check Claude Desktop logs for errors
### Authentication Errors
1. Verify your API key is valid and not expired
2. Ensure you have the correct permissions in your MCP360 account
3. Check that the API key hasn't been revoked
### Tool Execution Errors
- Use `search` first to discover the correct tool name
- Check that all required parameters are provided
- Verify parameter types match what the tool expects
- Review Claude Desktop logs for detailed error messages
