Advanced Troubleshooting: Managing Dev Mode & Deactivating Tools

If Angie is returning explicit error messages or a background function is consistently failing, a specific background tool or Model Context Protocol (MCP) server configuration may be malfunctioning. You can safely isolate and disable problematic tools using the steps below.

To isolate and deactivate failing Angie tools:

1. Click the Hamburger Menu (three horizontal lines) in the top-right corner of the Angie chat panel.
   
2. Select Tools from the context menu dropdown.
3. Toggle the Dev Mode switch at the top of the panel to On.
   
   This exposes real-time tool execution logs and background updates directly within the chat window so you can see precisely which tool is failing.
4. (Optional) Use the toggle options under Filter by Server to narrow down your view to specific tool categories (such as Elementor, WP Users, or Angie Images).
   
5. Scroll to the bottom of the panel and expand the Server Settings tray.
   
6. Locate the specific failing tool or protocol and temporarily deactivate or adjust its parameters.
