# 🔧 Connecting Your AI to Taskr

## 2.10 Troubleshooting

### "My AI says it can't find Taskr"

**Check these things:**

1. **Did you finish the browser sign-in?**
   - The first connection opens a browser to sign in and approve. If you missed it, reconnect the server in your tool's MCP settings (or click the red dot next to Taskr) to trigger it again.
2. **Is the web address exactly right?**
   - It must be `https://www.taskr.one/api/mcp`
3. **Any typos in the JSON?**
   - Every quote mark needs a matching pair
   - Don't accidentally delete any commas or brackets
4. **Is your tool up to date?**
   - Remote MCP + browser sign-in needs a recent version of your AI tool

### "The browser didn't open for sign-in"

1. In your tool's MCP settings, find **taskr** and reconnect / re-authenticate it
2. Approve the sign-in in the browser that opens
3. Still nothing? Make sure pop-ups aren't blocked, and that you're signed in to [taskr.one](https://taskr.one) in your default browser

### "It keeps asking me to sign in"

1. Your cached sign-in may have expired or your account access changed.
2. Reconnect / re-authenticate **taskr** in your tool's MCP settings to refresh it.
3. If it persists, sign out of Taskr in the browser, sign back in, then reconnect.

### "I see a JSON error"

The configuration is very picky about formatting. Common mistakes:
- Missing a comma between lines
- Extra comma at the end of the last item
- Missing quotes around text
- Mismatched brackets or braces

**Pro tip:** Click **"Start Setup"** on your project page—the wizard gives you a configuration that's guaranteed to be formatted correctly!

### Still Stuck?

1. Look for the **"Connect your code editor"** banner on your project page and click **"Start Setup"**
2. Make sure you're using the latest version of your AI tool
3. Try a different AI tool to see if the problem is tool-specific
