Troubleshooting

Session not persisting

If your login session is not persisting between runs:

1. Try running with the clean subcommand to remove old session data:

   npx github:gbbirkisson/mcp-oda clean
   

2. Re-authenticate:

   npx github:gbbirkisson/mcp-oda auth login --user your@email.com --pass yourpassword
   

3. Make sure you're using the same --data-dir for all commands if you've overridden the default.
