MCP

Test and troubleshoot

Verify the connection with the MCP Inspector and fix common errors.

MCP Inspector

The MCP Inspector is the official tool for exploring an MCP server: it lists every available tool and lets you run calls by hand.

Terminal
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector

Then connect with transport type Streamable HTTP and URL https://whazzup.io/mcp. The inspector opens the OAuth flow in your browser.

Check the connection

The server exposes a check_connection tool that verifies the token, plan and workspace access and reports what works. Ask your assistant to „check the Whazzup connection" or run the tool in the inspector. Failed calls also appear in Whazzup under Settings → MCP server and are kept for 30 days.

Direct connection test with mcp-remote
