Operation notes
- POST is the only supported MCP HTTP method. Authenticated GET, DELETE, and other non-POST requests return METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED with HTTP 405 and Allow: POST after account rate and origin checks. Request parsing or CORS handling can respond earlier. There is no GET SSE channel or session-delete route.
- Send Content-Type: application/json and Accept: application/json, text/event-stream. The installed MCP transport requires both Accept values even though this server enables JSON responses.
- Use the normal MCP lifecycle: initialize, send notifications/initialized, then tools/list or tools/call. Include the negotiated MCP-Protocol-Version header on subsequent requests.
- The server is stateless and returns no Mcp-Session-Id. Each HTTP request reauthenticates current permissions, user/team ownership, and paid account access.
- tools/list uses an opaque string cursor from nextCursor and returns 50 tools per page. Continue until nextCursor is absent. Invalid cursors produce a JSON-RPC method error.
- Each tool declares its required OAuth scopes in securitySchemes and _meta.securitySchemes. action_request_get additionally checks the original action’s permissions.
- Tool annotations describe read-only and destructive behavior. openWorldHint indicates interaction with external services or media sources; it does not grant extra permissions.
- webhooks_create_secret is REST-only. It is excluded from MCP discovery; calling it or polling it through MCP returns the tool error ACTION_NOT_AVAILABLE_IN_MCP. Signing secrets are not sent to assistants.
- tools/call accepts {name, arguments}; tool names and argument schemas are shared with /v1/actions. Mutations use a UUID v4 requestId inside arguments and reuse identical arguments for retries.
- Normal successful tool calls return content containing the serialized {data, requestId?} result plus the same structuredContent. Image download actions return native MCP image content and a text generationId instead.
- Action failures are tool results with isError: true, text error details, and structuredContent.error; they are not necessarily HTTP failures. Inspect both transport and tool-level errors.
- A long-running tool result includes its action request ID and pollAction: action_request_get. Poll with the original operation name; do not recreate a generation to check progress.
- Initialization, notifications, discovery, and tool calls all count toward the shared account rate limit. Only successful data actions consume monthly integration calls, with documented status/control exceptions.
- Send one JSON-RPC message per HTTP request. JSON bodies are limited to 1 MiB; media bytes use the upload actions.
- The Host header must match the canonical MCP host. If an Origin header is present, it must be the MCP origin, application origin, https://chatgpt.com, https://chat.openai.com, or https://claude.ai. Native clients may omit Origin.
- HTTP 401 errors include WWW-Authenticate: Bearer resource_metadata=“https://api.voicecheap.ai/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp” in production.
- Authentication failures use the integration error object. MCP protocol checks can return {code, message}; other protocol failures use JSON-RPC error objects with numeric error codes. Do not assume one error envelope for every transport failure.
- The route’s public HTTP guard permits 3000 requests per minute per client IP before account authentication. Each account retains its lower plan-specific shared API/MCP rate limit.
- Authorization-related tool errors include a Bearer challenge under _meta with the mcp/www_authenticate key. Reconnect your account with the required permissions before retrying.
Errors
| HTTP status | Code | Meaning or recovery |
|---|---|---|
| 400 | CREDENTIAL_IN_QUERY | Credentials were supplied in an access_token or api_key query parameter. Send credentials in headers. |
| 401 | MISSING_CREDENTIAL | No usable header credential was supplied, or it exceeded 4096 characters. |
| 401 | INVALID_CREDENTIAL | The Authorization header is malformed or conflicts with x-api-key. |
| 401 | API_KEY_EXPIRED | The API key has expired. |
| 401 | USER_NOT_FOUND | The credential’s account no longer exists. |
| 403 | SUBSCRIPTION_REQUIRED | The effective billing account does not have a paid subscription. |
| 403 | INTEGRATION_PLAN_UNSUPPORTED | The account’s integration limits could not be verified. |
| 403 | AMBIGUOUS_TEAM_API_KEY | The credential’s user belongs to more than one team, so the billing context is ambiguous. |
| 403 | TEAM_OWNER_NOT_FOUND | The effective team owner account could not be found. |
| 429 | INTEGRATION_RATE_LIMIT_REACHED | The shared account rate limit was reached. |
| 401 | INVALID_API_KEY | The API key is unknown or has invalid permissions. |
| 401 | INVALID_MCP_TOKEN | The MCP access token is invalid, expired, revoked, or no longer authorized. |
| 400 | BATCH_NOT_SUPPORTED | The body is an array; send one MCP message per HTTP request. |
| 400 | -32700 | Invalid JSON or invalid JSON-RPC message, reported by the MCP transport. |
| 400 | -32000 | Unsupported MCP-Protocol-Version header, reported by the MCP transport. |
| 403 | INVALID_ORIGIN | A browser Origin is outside the configured allowlist. |
| 403 | -32000 | The Host or Origin header fails MCP transport protection. |
| 405 | METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED | Only POST is supported. A request with another method returns Allow: POST after credential, rate, and origin checks. |
| 406 | -32000 | Accept must include both application/json and text/event-stream. |
| 413 | REQUEST_TOO_LARGE | The request exceeds the allowed body size. JSON is limited to 1 MiB and URL-encoded forms to 32 KiB. |
| 415 | UNSUPPORTED_CONTENT_TYPE | The integration body parser accepts JSON or URL-encoded forms only. The route may require one of those encodings specifically. |
| 415 | -32000 | The MCP transport requires Content-Type application/json. |
