## Troubleshooting

**Unable to add multiple connectors** — A Claude Pro plan or higher is required to use more than one connector in Claude Desktop.

**Connection failed** — Verify that the server URL is correct and that you replaced `YOUR_API_KEY` with a valid Geekflare API key.

**Geekflare connector not available** — Open **Settings** → **Connectors** to confirm that the connector was added successfully. If it is not listed, add the connector again using the correct server URL.
