Troubleshooting
Fixes for the most common setup problems.
Updated October 31, 2026
The assistant doesn't list CostCrunch, or says it failed to start
- Check uv is installed:
uvx --versionin a terminal. - Desktop apps may not see your terminal's PATH. Put the full path to
uvxin"command"(find it withwhich uvx). - Restart the assistant after changing its config.
"This API key is not valid or has been revoked" The key was revoked, mistyped, or its owner left the company. Create a new key in Settings → API and update the config.
"This API key belongs to a different organization"
COSTCRUNCH_ORG is set to another company. Remove it; a key always uses its own company.
"API keys can only read data" Something tried to make a change. Keys are read-only; make changes in the CostCrunch app.
Test the connection outside the assistant
COSTCRUNCH_API_KEY=cc_live_... uvx --from costcrunch cost account whoami
This prints the key's name and company. If it works here but not in the assistant, the problem is the assistant's config.
