MCP server returns 401 or repeats authorization prompts

    MCP authentication depends on your client type.

    For header-based clients (e.g., curl, custom scripts)

    Send your API key as a Bearer token:

    Authorization: Bearer tk_your_api_key_here

    For OAuth-based clients (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cursor)

    Complete the Techne connector authorization flow when prompted. If authorization keeps repeating, try:

    1.Clearing your MCP client's cached credentials.
    2.Reconnecting the Techne MCP server.
    3.Generating a fresh API key in Settings → API Keys.
