Connection Issues

​
Tools not appearing in my AI client

  1. Restart your client after making configuration changes
  2. Check the endpoint is reachable: 
    curl -X POST https://borough.qwady.app/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-06-18","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0"}},"id":1}'
  3. Verify your config file syntax (JSON must be valid)
  4. Check mcp-remote is installed: npx mcp-remote --version

​
”Authentication failed” error

  • If you are using Claude or another OAuth-capable client, reconnect Borough and complete the Borough auth flow again
  • If you are using direct bearer auth, verify your API key starts with BOROUGH-
  • Check the key is active in the customer portal
  • Ensure the Authorization header format is exactly Bearer BOROUGH-<key>
Free-tier MCP sessions can still authenticate through OAuth even if you do not attach a paid Borough API key.

​
”Rate limit exceeded” error

Your plan’s per-minute rate limit has been reached. Each MCP tool call consumes one API request.

Tool-Specific Issues

​
”Requires Starter plan” when calling get_property

Property detail, building, and building listing tools require a Starter plan ($19/mo) or higher. Free-tier users can use search_rentals, search_sales, list_areas, get_market_snapshot, get_market_trends, and compare_neighborhoods.

​
”Requires Starter plan” for building or property tools

Property and building detail tools require a Starter plan ($19/mo) or higher. Market tools are available to authenticated free-tier MCP users.

​
Empty search results

  • Try broader filters (remove price or bedroom constraints)
  • Try an exact borough or neighborhood name directly, or lock the area ID first with list_areas
  • Borough IDs: Manhattan=100, Bronx=200, Brooklyn=300, Queens=400, Staten Island=500

​
Location name resolves to multiple areas

If Borough returns a short clarification list, choose one of the suggested IDs or provide a more specific location name. This usually happens with names that exist at multiple levels or in multiple contexts. Borough does not silently auto-pick in these cases because the MCP tools are optimized for certainty first.

​
Photos do not render in my client

  • Borough search results return leadPhotoUrl and renderHints.imageUrl, but this version does not send inline MCP image blocks
  • Some clients render the proxied image URLs automatically; others may only use the text and map fields
  • The most render-friendly fields to look for are price, displayPrice, geoPoint, leadPhotoUrl, and renderHints

​
Amenity search returns few results

Amenities such as DISHWASHER and WASHER_DRYER are supported, but Borough may need to refine a small candidate set using listing detail before returning final matches. If your search is very narrow, try:
  • widening the budget
  • expanding to nearby neighborhoods
  • reducing the required amenity set to one must-have amenity first
