Troubleshooting

Server fails to start with "Missing required environment variable"

  • Make sure both ENGAGELAB_DEV_KEY and ENGAGELAB_DEV_SECRET are set in the env block of your MCP client config.

send_sms returns error code 3002 ("invalid template id format")

  • Check that your template ID matches an approved template in the EngageLab console.

send_sms returns error code related to template params

  • Verify that template.params keys match the variable names defined in your EngageLab template.

SMS not received

  • Use international phone number format (e.g. +8618700001111).

  • Confirm the template is approved and not suspended.
