Troubleshooting

SymptomCause & fix
search_eu_law returns isError with a purchase hintNo Authorization: Bearer key was sent. Free tools work without a key; search is metered — get a key via https://conformi.eu/api/v1/openapi.json
401 UNAUTHORIZED on searchKey invalid or revoked. Check the key in your conformi.eu account (Account → API Keys)
403 PLAN_REQUIRED / TRIAL_LIMIT_REACHEDSubscription inactive or the 50-query trial allowance is used up — activate the subscription
404 for a CELEX in get_knowledge_articleNo curated report exists for that act yet. Try search_eu_law instead — the full corpus is searchable
Connection failsThe server speaks Streamable HTTP only (no SSE). POST JSON-RPC to https://conformi.eu/api/mcp; GET returns 405 by design
