MCP troubleshooting
Fixes for common Coinrule MCP connection problems — invalid_client in ChatGPT, sign-in loops, missing write tools, expired access, and reconnecting.
Most MCP connection problems come down to a stale connector or the wrong access level. Work through the fixes below; if you are still stuck, contact support.
ChatGPT shows "invalid_client"
ChatGPT sometimes caches a stale client registration. Remove the Coinrule connector and add it again from scratch — this forces a fresh OAuth registration and clears the error. See Connect ChatGPT.
The connection URL is rejected
Confirm the server URL is exactly:
https://cloud.coinrule.com/mcp
with no trailing path or query string. A URL with extra path segments will not resolve.
Sign-in loops or never completes
- Make sure you are signing into the correct Coinrule account.
- Allow pop-ups / redirects for your AI client so the OAuth window can open and return.
- If your client cached a half-finished attempt, remove the connector and add it again.
The assistant can read but not trade
A read-only connection intentionally hides all write tools, so the assistant cannot create, launch, or stop strategies. Reconnect and choose Read + Write. See scopes and permissions.
Access stopped working
- You revoked it. Check Settings → Integrations; if the connection is gone, reconnect.
- Token expired. Access tokens are short-lived and normally refresh automatically. If your client failed to refresh, remove and re-add the connector.
"Missing account" when launching a multi-venue basket
A basket whose legs span several exchanges needs a connected account on each one. Connect the missing exchange (see connecting an exchange), then ask the assistant to launch again.
The assistant picks the wrong action
Be explicit: name the venue, the capital amount, and whether you want paper or live. See example prompts for phrasing that maps cleanly to the right tool.
Still stuck?
Revoke the connection in Settings → Integrations, reconnect from scratch, and if the problem persists, reach out via support.
