Troubleshooting
"Connection refused"
Check that your API key is valid. You can regenerate it from Settings > API & MCP in the Gravitask app.
"Permission denied"
Verify that MCP is enabled for your workspace in Settings > Integrations. Workspace admins control this setting.
"Tool not found"
Some tools may be disabled by your workspace admin. Check Settings > Integrations > MCP to see which tools are available.
"Timeout or slow response"
Large workspaces with many projects may take a moment to respond. If the issue persists, check the Gravitask status page.
