MacOS / Linux: ### "Client" mode
`tail -n 20 -F ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp*.log` Run the following on the command line (not from an MCP server):
For bash on WSL: ```shell
npx -p mcp-remote@latest mcp-remote-client https://remote.mcp.server/sse
```
`tail -n 20 -f "C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Claude\Logs\mcp.log"` This will run through the entire authorization flow and attempt to list the tools & resources at the remote URL. Pair this with `--clean` or after running `rm -rf ~/.mcp-auth` to see if stale credentials are your problem, otherwise hopefully the issue will be more obvious in these logs than those in your MCP client.
or Powershell:
`Get-Content "C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Claude\Logs\mcp.log" -Wait -Tail 20`
