Troubleshooting & Common ErrorsFAQ

Common connection errors and verified fixes for Youtube API

Getting 'connection closed' or exit code 1 in Cursor / Claude Code for Youtube API?

Usually caused by missing runtime paths or IDE environment inheritance. Fix steps: 1. Verify Node.js 18+ (npx) or Python 3.10+ (uvx) is installed; 2. Run 'which npx' or 'which uvx' in terminal, and replace 'command' with absolute path; 3. Reload or restart the client window after modifying config.

Fix Snippet
# Check binary path in terminal:
which npx
node -v
Getting 'spawn npx ENOENT' or 'command not found'?

The editor background process does not inherit your full terminal PATH. Solution: Globally install the package, or set the absolute binary path (e.g. C:\Program Files\nodejs\npx.cmd on Windows, or /usr/local/bin/npx on macOS).

Tool calls timing out or failing to download packages?

First-time package downloading might be slow or timeout due to network limits. Configure a reliable mirror or check outbound proxy settings.

Agent does not match or apply Youtube API during conversations?

Verify SKILL.md is located at .cursor/skills/Youtube API/SKILL.md (Cursor) or ~/.claude/skills/Youtube API/SKILL.md (Claude Code). You can explicitly mention the skill name in your prompt to boost match confidence.
