Environment variables

Most MCP clients support environment variable interpolation. Store your key as FEEDNEST_API_KEY and reference it with your client's syntax (e.g., ${FEEDNEST_API_KEY}, ${env:FEEDNEST_API_KEY}).

Verify your connection

After setup, try one of these prompts to confirm everything is working:

  • What are my unread articles?
  • Summarize my latest saved articles
  • How many feeds am I subscribed to?

Troubleshooting

401 Unauthorized

Check that your API key is valid and hasn't been revoked. Ensure the Authorization header is formatted as 'Bearer fn_live_...' (with a space after Bearer).

403 Forbidden

Your API key may not have the required scope for the tool you're calling. Check your key's permissions in Settings → Developer API.

Connection refused or timeout

Verify the server URL is https://mcp.feednest.com (not http). Check your network connection and firewall settings.

Tools not appearing

Restart your AI client after changing the MCP configuration. Some clients require a full restart to detect new servers.
