# WebSocket & Tool Display - Complete Fix Summary
## π§ Issues Resolved
### Issue #1: WebSocket Connection Failed βββ
**Symptom**:
```
Connecting to WebSocket: ws://localhost:5173/ws/chat
β WebSocket error - Make sure backend is running on port 8001
```
**Root Cause**:
- Frontend connecting to itself instead of backend
- No Vite proxy configuration for WebSocket
**Solution Implemented**:
1. β
Added WebSocket proxy in `vite.config.js`:
```javascript
'/ws': {
target: 'ws://localhost:8001',
ws: true
}
```
2. β
Updated `useChatWebSocket.js` to use proxied URL
- URL: `ws://localhost:5173/ws/chat` (proxied to backend)
- Better error messages with debugging hints
3. β
Created `.env` file for backend URL configuration
### Issue #2: Tool Results Truncated βββ
**Symptom**:
```
Result: NAMESPACE NAME READY...
create-by-gemini...
```
**Root Cause**:
- Old code limited to 500 chars with `"..."`
- No scrolling for large outputs
**Solution Implemented**:
1. β
Removed truncation in `ToolCall.jsx`
- Shows complete result
- Added proper formatting
2. β
Enhanced `ToolCall.css`
- Dark code block (#1e1e1e) for results
- Scrollable containers (max-height: 300px)
- Custom scrollbars
- Left border accent
## π Files Modified
### Frontend Configuration
- **vite.config.js** - Added WebSocket proxy
- **.env** - Backend URL configuration
- **src/hooks/useChatWebSocket.js** - Fixed connection logic
### Frontend Components
- **src/components/ToolCall.jsx** - Full result display
- **src/styles/ToolCall.css** - Enhanced styling
### Backend (No changes needed - already working!)
- WebSocket endpoint functional at `/ws/chat`
- Real-time streaming working correctly
## π― How It Works Now
### Connection Flow
```
Browser loads localhost:5173
β
Page initializes β ChatPage.jsx
β
useEffect hooks useChatWebSocket.connect()
β
Creates WebSocket to: ws://localhost:5173/ws/chat
β
Vite proxy intercepts and forwards to: ws://localhost:8001/ws/chat
β
Backend accepts connection β
β
"β WebSocket connected" logs to console
```
### Message Flow
```
User types and presses Enter
β
send({message: "...", conversation_id: "..."})
β
WebSocket sends to backend
β
Backend processes and streams events:
- "thinking"
- "text" (chunks)
- "tool_call_start"
- "tool_call_end" (with full result)
- "complete"
β
Frontend updates UI in real-time
β
Tool results display in ToolCallHistory with full output
```
## π Quick Start
### Terminal 1 - MCP Server
```bash
cd /home/amazinrahul/practice/mcp-k8s
uv run k8s_mcp_server.py
```
### Terminal 2 - Backend
```bash
cd /home/amazinrahul/practice/mcp-k8s/app/backend
uv run run.py
```
### Terminal 3 - Frontend
```bash
cd /home/amazinrahul/practice/mcp-k8s/app/frontend
bun run dev
```
### Browser
```
http://localhost:5173
```
β
Should see: `β WebSocket connected` in console
## β
Verification Checklist
After starting all 3 services:
- [ ] Browser DevTools Console shows `β WebSocket connected`
- [ ] Can send message without WebSocket error
- [ ] See real-time text streaming
- [ ] Tool calls execute and appear in ToolCallHistory
- [ ] Tool results show **full output** (no truncation)
- [ ] Can scroll tool results
- [ ] Tool status shows β
(completed) or β (failed)
- [ ] Expand/collapse tool cards works
- [ ] Multi-line input works (Shift+Enter)
## π Debugging Tips
### WebSocket Won't Connect
**Check**:
1. Backend running on 8001?
```bash
curl http://localhost:8001/health
```
2. Reload browser page after backend starts
3. Check browser DevTools β Network β WS tab
### Tool Results Still Truncated
1. Hard refresh browser (Cmd+Shift+R or Ctrl+Shift+R)
2. Clear browser cache
3. Verify ToolCall.jsx was updated correctly
### See Backend Messages
**In backend Terminal**: Watch for logs:
```
[DEBUG] Processing stream message: ...
[DEBUG] Got tool call: list_pods
[DEBUG] Tool result type: ...
```
