What does the warnings-as-errors flag do?

This flag forces the validator to treat minor warnings as critical failures, ensuring your configuration meets the highest standards of correctness.

What transport types does this skill support?

It validates standard transport protocols including stdio, sse, http, and websocket to ensure your server can communicate with Claude.

Why is my MCP server not working in Claude Code?

Use the validate-mcp skill to check for JSON syntax errors, incorrect transport types, or missing environment variables in your .mcp.json file.

How does it handle environment variables?

The skill checks for proper expansion patterns like ${VAR} or ${VAR:-default} to ensure variables are resolved correctly during server initialization.

Can I validate a configuration file in a custom location?

Yes, you can use the --path flag to point the validator to any specific .mcp.json file on your system.

開発者ツール

Ensures Model Context Protocol (MCP) server configurations are syntactically correct and functional for Claude Code projects.

The Validate MCP skill provides automated linting and verification for .mcp.json configuration files, helping developers troubleshoot connection issues and configuration errors. It performs deep checks on transport types like stdio and SSE, validates environment variable expansion, ensures unique server names, and verifies command execution paths. This skill is essential for streamlining the integration of external tools and data sources into the Claude environment, preventing runtime failures caused by malformed configuration files.
