Troubleshooting
Common Issues
Authentication Failed
Symptoms: Access denied to wiki, Unauthorized errors, PAT token rejected
Cause: Missing or invalid Azure DevOps Personal Access Token
Solution:
- Generate PAT in Azure DevOps with Wiki read permissions
- Set AZURE_DEVOPS_PAT environment variable
- Verify PAT has access to specified organization/project
- Check PAT expiration date
Organization/Project Not Found
Symptoms: Project not found errors, Organization does not exist
Cause: Invalid ORG or PROJECT configuration
Solution:
- Verify organization name matches Azure DevOps URL
- Confirm project exists and is accessible
- Check spelling and case sensitivity
- Use --org and --project parameters to override defaults
Wiki Content Not Found
Symptoms: No search results, Wiki path not found, Empty responses
Cause: Wiki not configured or content not available
Solution:
- Verify project has Wiki enabled
- Check wiki content exists in specified project
- Confirm search terms match available content
- Try broader search queries initially
uv Environment Issues
Symptoms: Command not found, Package installation fails, Virtual env errors
Cause: uv not installed or virtual environment not activated
Solution:
- Install uv: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
- Activate virtual environment before running
- Ensure Python 3.10+ is available
- Reinstall dependencies if corruption occurred
Plugin Not Loading or Command Not Found
Symptoms: :MCPHub command not recognized, Plugin not appearing in :PlugStatus, No errors but plugin inactive
Cause: Plugin not properly installed or configuration error
Solution:
- Verify plugin is added to plugin manager configuration
- Run plugin manager install command (:PackerInstall, :PlugInstall, or Lazy auto-install)
- Check for errors in :messages after sourcing config
- Ensure dependencies (plenary.nvim, nui.nvim) are installed
- Restart Neovim completely
MCP Server Won't Start
Symptoms: Server status shows "Error", Red indicator on server, Server immediately stops after starting
Cause: Invalid server configuration or missing dependencies
Solution:
- Verify npx is installed and in PATH: npx --version
- Check MCP server package exists: npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem --help
- Review server configuration in setup() - verify command and args
- Check server logs in MCPHub interface for detailed error messages
- Ensure required environment variables are set (e.g., GITHUB_TOKEN)
- Test server manually in terminal: npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem /path
UI Not Displaying Correctly
Symptoms: Blank window, Garbled text, Layout issues, Missing borders
Cause: Terminal or Neovim rendering issues
Solution:
- Verify Neovim version is 0.9 or higher: nvim --version
- Try different border style in ui.border config ("single", "double", "rounded")
- Check terminal supports Unicode and 256 colors
- Update nui.nvim dependency to latest version
- Test with different colorscheme to rule out theme conflicts
Integration with Avante/CodeCompanion Not Working
Symptoms: AI assistant not seeing MCP tools, Tool calls failing, Integration not recognized
Cause: Integration not enabled or incompatible versions
Solution:
- Verify integration is enabled in config: integrations.avante = true
- Ensure Avante.nvim/CodeCompanion.nvim is installed and loaded
- Check versions are compatible - update both plugins to latest
- Restart Neovim after enabling integration
- Check :checkhealth for integration-specific warnings
Marketplace Not Loading
Symptoms: :MCPHubMarketplace shows empty list, Network error in marketplace, Timeout loading servers
Cause: Network connectivity issues or marketplace service unavailable
Solution:

- Check firewall allows HTTPS connections
- Try again later if marketplace service is temporarily down
- Review proxy settings if behind corporate firewall
- Check :messages for detailed network error messages
Project-Local Config Not Loading
Symptoms: .mcphub.json ignored, Project servers not appearing, Only global config loaded
Cause: Config file location or format issues
Solution:
- Verify .mcphub.json is in project root (same directory as .git)
- Check JSON syntax is valid using jsonlint or similar tool
- Ensure file name is exactly .mcphub.json (case-sensitive)
- Restart Neovim after creating/modifying project config
- Check file permissions are readable
