Hi! i'm having an issue with remote mcp - i get errors really often. sometimes after an error, i can't even click the regenerate button. the only way out is to restart the app. i never have any issues with the exact same mcp in other apps (tested them at the same time).
error message - Request timed out. The server took too long to respond. Please try again.

Hi,
Thanks for reporting this. Could you record one of these failures for us? It’ll show us what’s actually happening between BoltAI, the model and your MCP server.
Open Settings › Developer and find AI Traffic Recording.
Click Start Recording.
Use the remote MCP as you normally would until you get the error. If you can, also try clicking Regenerate after the error so we can see that part too.
Go back to Settings and click Stop Recording, then Export Recording… and save the file.
Send us the file, along with roughly what time the error happened and the name of the MCP server.
Prompts, responses, tool inputs and results, file names and credentials are all replaced with placeholders, so the file shouldn’t contain anything private. It’s a plain text file if you’d like to check it before sending.
Also can you share the mcp setup with me so I can reproduce it and fix it faster.
Recording turns off when you restart BoltAI. If you restart before the error happens, click Start Recording again.
Thanks!
