Troubleshooting
Common Issues
MCP Server Not Connecting
Symptoms: Server shows disconnected status, Tool calls fail, Timeout errors
Cause: Invalid configuration or server not accessible
Solution:
- Verify MCP server URL or command is correct
- For STDIO servers, ensure Node.js and npx are installed
- Check firewall settings allow connections
- Review server logs in Toolbox dashboard
- Test server independently outside Msty
Local Model Performance Issues
Symptoms: Slow response times, High memory usage, System freezes
Cause: Model size exceeds hardware capabilities
Solution:
- Use smaller model variants (e.g., Llama 3 8B instead of 70B)
- Enable quantization for reduced memory footprint
- Close other applications to free resources
- Consider using cloud models for complex tasks
- Check system requirements for selected model
Privacy Mode Not Working
Symptoms: Data appears to be sent externally, Telemetry detected, Unexpected network activity
Cause: Cloud models or online MCP servers configured
Solution:
- Ensure using only local models (Llama.cpp-based)
- Configure STDIO MCP servers instead of HTTP/SSE
- Disable internet connection to verify offline capability
- Review Insights dashboard for token usage (should be zero for local)
- Check Privacy settings are configured correctly
Turnstile Workflow Failures
Symptoms: Workflow stops mid-execution, Steps not triggering, Incorrect branching
Cause: Logic errors or MCP server issues
Solution:
- Test each workflow step individually
- Verify all MCP servers in workflow are connected
- Review workflow logic and conditions
- Check Turnstile logs for execution errors
- Simplify complex workflows for debugging
Cross-Device Sync Problems
Symptoms: Settings not syncing, Conversations missing, Inconsistent state
Cause: Sync service issues or Aurum plan not active
Solution:
