Troubleshooting
Server not starting
Verify your API key is set:
echo $WAVE_API_KEYTools not appearing
Restart your AI tool after adding the MCP configuration. Most tools require a restart to detect new MCP servers.
Connection errors
The MCP server uses stdio transport (no network listener). If you see connection errors, check that npx can run successfully:
npx @wave-av/mcp-server --versionTesting the server
Send a JSON-RPC initialize request to verify:
echo '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2024-11-05","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0.0"}}}' | npx @wave-av/mcp-serverRelated packages
