 ## Troubleshooting
 
 ### Remote Server Issues
+
 - **Streamable HTTP not working**: Ensure you're using Cursor v0.48.0 or later
 - **Authentication failures**: Verify PAT has correct scopes
 - **Connection errors**: Check firewall/proxy settings
 
 ### Local Server Issues
+
 - **Docker errors**: Ensure Docker Desktop is running
 - **Image pull failures**: Try `docker logout ghcr.io` then retry
 - **Docker not found**: Install Docker Desktop and ensure it's running
 
 ### General Issues
+
 - **MCP not loading**: Restart Cursor completely after configuration
 - **Invalid JSON**: Validate that json format is correct
 - **Tools not appearing**: Check server shows green dot in MCP settings
