Check it worked
Ask Continue: List the tools of autotask-mcp.
If it does not start
- Cannot connect to the Docker daemon
- Docker is not running. Start it, then restart Continue.
- The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong. - Nothing changes after a restart
- The file is not valid YAML any more. Check that the entry is indented like the lines around it.
