MCP server "…" has a "url" but no "type"
MCP server "…" has a "url" but no "type"
Why - Claude Code reads a typeless entry as a local command and skips it.Fix - add
"type": "http". "streamable-http" is accepted as an alias.Needs authentication, repeatedly
Needs authentication, repeatedly
Why - the stored token expired and was issued without
offline_access, so there is no refresh token.Fix - add offline_access, then sign in again. If it recurs within the hour, check the machine clock - skew of more than a few minutes invalidates the token’s signature window.Connects, but exposes no tools
Connects, but exposes no tools
Why - sign-in succeeded on a narrower permission set than the tools require.Fix - remove any
scopes / includeTools / enabled_tools narrowing, sign in again, then reintroduce limits once you know which tools you need. On Gemini CLI and Antigravity, also check how many connectors you have enabled - they cap the total tools loaded across all servers, and Copyleaks adds twelve.The server is not listed at all
The server is not listed at all
Why - the config landed in the wrong file or scope.Fix - let the client write the file:
claude mcp add, gemini mcp add, codex mcp add, or the editor’s Add Server command. Read it back with claude mcp get or /mcp.Tools appear, but every call is refused
Tools appear, but every call is refused
Why - no active paid plan.Fix - reactivate in your Copyleaks account. Access ends with the plan.
Scans are refused but reading works
Scans are refused but reading works
Why - no credits left.Fix - add credits. Reading existing results is unaffected.
unable to verify the first certificate · SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN
unable to verify the first certificate · SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN
Why - your network inspects TLS and re-signs with a certificate authority your client’s trust store does not know.Fix - point the client at your organization’s root certificate. Node-based clients (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Antigravity,
mcp-remote) read NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS; Python-based ones read REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE or SSL_CERT_FILE.Client registration failed · invalid_client
Client registration failed · invalid_client
Why - the client tried to register itself with the authorization server and was refused.Fix - confirm the client is on a current version, and that nothing on your network blocks the sign-in redirect. If it persists, contact Copyleaks support with the client name and version.
Connection error after signing in (CLI)
Connection error after signing in (CLI)
Why - the local redirect failed.Fix - paste the full callback URL from the browser’s address bar back at the prompt.

Why - scope.Fix - re-add with
--scope user.A scan comes back failed
A scan comes back failed
Why - the scan did not complete.Fix - run it again. A failed scan spends nothing.
The browser never opened
The browser never opened
Why - no usable browser on this machine.Fix - open the printed URL yourself, or sign in with
--no-browser and paste the redirect URL back at the prompt.Client schemas move quickly - when a config block stops working, check the vendor’s documentation before changing the server.
