  # Troubleshooting

  ## General tips

  - Run `npx chrome-devtools-mcp@latest --help` to test if the MCP server runs
  on your machine.

  - Make sure that your MCP client uses the same npm and node version as your
  terminal.

  - When configuring your MCP client, try using the `--yes` argument to `npx` to
    auto-accept installation prompt.
  - Find a specific error in the output of the `chrome-devtools-mcp` server.
    Usually, if your client is an IDE, logs would be in the Output pane.
  - Search the [GitHub repository issues and
  discussions](https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/chrome-devtools-mcp) for help
  or existing similar problems.
