Find your stopping point
Cannot open the workspace
Signed in, but cannot reach the intended organization? Check selection and membership.
MCP will not connect
Check the endpoint, accepted credential type, and resolved secret.
A tool is missing or denied
Check discovery, scopes, and the actual tenant exposed by your connection.
The agent answers incorrectly
Inspect saved settings, processed knowledge, and the failed test.
The trial has no draft
Follow the accepted job through its steps and workflow execution.
The customer got no reply
Separate dry runs, routing, review decisions, and dispatch evidence.
Workspace access
Open Response Setup and confirm the selected organization. If signup did not complete, finish the sign-in, organization, or plan step the app displays. If your organization already exists, resolve membership rather than creating another workspace. For portal provisioning, inspect the existing launch/verification results. Use Open your Response workspace after launch. A partially provisioned service needs its reported issue resolved; another signup is not evidence that the original workspace has been repaired. If the workflow UI reports that the organization is not mapped to the engine, ask the workspace administrator to check the organization-to-brand mapping. The Response organization ID, Workstream brand UUID, and brand slug are not interchangeable.Recovered when: the intended workspace opens and a read shows the expected organization or
brand, without creating duplicate records.
MCP connection
Check the exact remote endpoint:- Response:
https://response.stateset.com/api/mcp - Workstream:
https://api.workstream.stateset.com/v1/mcp
The Response workspace-key unavailable path can return
Retry-After. Respect it for a later
connection/read attempt. Do not apply this advice as a blanket retry rule for business writes.
See service error contracts.
Recovered when: discovery succeeds and a read identifies the intended data source. Avoid
rotating every credential or disabling authentication to diagnose one failing connection.
Missing tools
Refreshtools/list in the host and inspect the actual input schema. A missing tool can reflect
credential scopes, a selected profile, a deployment version, or a transport limitation.
Response’s test_agent and evaluation runs require generation/write permission, even though
your purpose is testing. Reading an agent successfully does not establish that permission.
Some Workstream tools delegate to REST handlers and require HTTP transport rather than local
mcp-stdio.
Do not invent a tool name or bypass a denial with another tenant ID. Ask the administrator for
the permission needed for the specific task, then verify discovery and access again.
Recovered when: the required tool is exposed and authorized for the intended record. See
the connection walkthrough.
Agent behavior
Find the existing agent before creating a replacement. Inspect its saved instructions, settings, rules, and sources using the app or the supported Response reads.- A newly imported source must finish processing before you treat it as searchable knowledge.
- An imported policy is not live order data. Order questions need the configured lookup.
- A test question must exercise the intended agent, not an assumed default agent.
- A correction stored as an evaluation does not itself change the agent’s behavior.
run_eval returning passed: null means grading could not run;
resolve that before calling the test passed. A capped suite with has_more is incomplete.
Recovered when: the saved change is visible and the relevant test has an observed, reviewed
result. Use the first-week evaluation loop.
Workflow trial
Keep the existing brand UUID and accelerator job ID. Useget_onboarding_accelerator_status
for the latest job on that brand and get_onboarding_funnel for the next incomplete milestone.
Compare the returned job ID with the attempt you are investigating; a latest-status read is
not a request for an arbitrary historical job.
Inspect every step, including skipped reasons. A job response or a completed report does not
mean all dependent operations succeeded.
Recovered when: a trial report and run evidence show what happened to a replayed ticket.
Do not lower evaluation thresholds or switch routing live just to make an onboarding indicator
turn green.
Missing replies
Follow the evidence in order:- Event: did a real provider event reach the brand? A replay does not prove webhook delivery.
- Run: did it execute, skip, fail, or escalate? Read the actual reason.
- Mode: was this a backfill/dry run or shadow operation? Those drafts are not customer sends.
- Review: is the reply waiting for a human decision? Inspect the configured review process.
- Dispatch: did the provider accept the send, and what evidence identifies the resulting message?
dry_run: true and bypasses the human-review waiting step. No approval
item for that replay is expected. For real traffic, brand activation and live routing are
separate; an active shadow brand still does not establish customer dispatch.
Do not send the reply manually until you have reconciled whether the original dispatch
succeeded. If it is still uncertain, keep the case visible to its owner rather than creating
a second send attempt without evidence.
Recovered when: the run and channel evidence agree on whether a reply was sent, skipped,
escalated, or is still pending.
