MCP: errors and troubleshooting
No Hostbip MCP endpoint, callable tool catalogue or verified client configuration is connected in this source release.
Make failures understandable.
The precise Hostbip MCP error catalogue awaits the service contract. No vendor-specific codes are invented here.
Distinguish the failure boundary
Connection failure, authorization failure, malformed input, policy denial, backend timeout and an unsuccessful business operation are different outcomes. A documented response should allow the client to tell them apart.
Paid and destructive actions
A timeout after submission needs status reconciliation using the operation identifier. Repeating a purchase or deletion blindly is not an acceptable retry strategy.
Safe diagnostics
Record the service release, protocol revision, request identifier and sanitized error. Avoid authorization headers, account secrets, full customer records and signed action approvals in support tickets or telemetry.
Guides are editorial. Backend permissions and technical contracts remain authoritative.
