MCP Server Setup Error

[zqatepicvc]

I’m trying to set up the MindStudio MCP server, and this is what the current recommended config looks like from MindStudio itself:

{
“mcpServers”: {
“mindstudio”: {
“command”: “npx”,
“args”: [
“mcp-remote”,
“https://v1.mindstudio-api.com/developer/mcp/v1/f0*****2-f****-4***c-****f-a1**********d”
“–header”,
“Authorization: ${AUTH_TOKEN}”,
“–transport http-only”
],
“env”: {
“AUTH_TOKEN”: “Bearer sk7jU8****************wcC2ige”
}
}
}
}

When I paste that into Claude’s JSON config file, I already get an error saying there should be a comma on the link on the line right before the “–header”, line, so I add it and that resolves the error in VS code, but then I boot up Claude, while mindstudio does appear as a tool, Claude’s UI is telling me its disabled. So, I quit Claude, reopened the config file, tried to add config set up code as originally written without the comma, and when I saved that to the config file and tried to open Claude, I’ll got all these errors such that I couldn’t even open up Claude! Please help/fix!

Hi @zqatepicvc,

Thanks for the post, and sorry you’re running into this issue.

Could you let me know if you’re on Windows or Mac?

Hi @Alex_MindStudio, I’m on Mac.

Hi @zqatepicvc,

Could you record the steps you’re taking? You can skip ahead to the part where you paste the snippet into the claude_desktop_config file. Also, make sure to force quit Claude before opening it again.

Here’s a link you can use to record:

This is how it currently is configured in my config file. Note, I do have an agent I’ve built on MindStudio and I have connected it to the server via its agent ID. As you see, it’s in there correctly because the Claude desktop app recognizes it, but it’s pulling up as disabled and I can’t make any tool calls to my MindStudio agent.

Hi @zqatepicvc,

Thanks for sharing the screenshots. The config file looks good to me.

Could you double-check that your Agent in MindStudio is set up correctly? You can review the Help Doc for details, but here’s a quick summary:

1. Set the Start block to Packaged Workflow Run Mode
2. Add Launch Variables and configure the JSON Output in the End Session block
3. Publish the Agent to make sure all changes are saved

Let me know how it goes!

You need to click mindstudio and enable it!

Do you have any exposed agents here?
