Troubleshooting OAuth / 401

  • A 401 Unauthorized on first connect is normal โ€” the endpoint is OAuth-protected; let ChatGPT finish the browser consent flow.
  • If the consent window never opens, remove and re-add the server, then retry.
  • Check the exact challenge at our OAuth debugger.
  • Run the live endpoint through the online inspector to see the raw JSON-RPC exchange.
