Looking for help configuring a tool

[andrewmusselman]

I have mcp from https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk running on a host that can hear requests and run tools per these steps: https://github.com/The-AI-Alliance/gofannon/blob/main/docs/mcp/index.md

But when I try to add a tool in the gateway admin I'm getting errors when I try configuring it. Is there a how-to to replicate my calls that work, e.g., MCP vs HTTP, what JSON headers, use schema builder vs custom JSON input, what parameters to set, etc.?

Here is the call that works with cmcp from https://github.com/RussellLuo/cmcp (works the same without the /sse token on the URL):
cmcp -v http://<my-server-ip>:8000/sse tools/call name=search arguments:='{"query": "Impact of Ground Truth Annotation Quality"}'

Here is the request and beginning of a successful response:

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "search",
    "arguments": {
      "query": "Impact of Ground Truth Annotation Quality"
    }
  },
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1
}
Response:

Added the server to the gateways tab and its tools are showing up, looks like progress.

Hi, MCP Servers should be added under the Gateways/MCP Servers tab, not tools. You are correct!

Added: #233 to provide contextual help in the UI and better describe what each feature does.

Awesome thanks @crivetimihai!
