mcp_handler_error

MCP request failed

The MCP server could not complete the protocol request.

Resolution

Retry with backoff and provide the request ID if the problem persists.

Response handling

Keep the response's request_id for diagnostics. Retry only transient 429 and 503 responses, using the rate-limit headers and exponential backoff with jitter. Correct 400, 401, and 403 requests before retrying.
