## 🐋 Docker Hub integration
|
|
528
525
|
The Apify MCP Server is also available on [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/mcp/server/apify-mcp-server/overview), registered via the [mcp-registry](https://github.com/docker/mcp-registry) repository. The entry in `servers/apify-mcp-server/server.yaml` should be deployed automatically by the Docker Hub MCP registry (deployment frequency is unknown). **Before making major changes to the `stdio` server version, test it locally to ensure the Docker build passes.** To test, change the `source.branch` to your PR branch and run `task build -- apify-mcp-server`. For more details, see [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/docker/mcp-registry/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md).

# 🐛 Troubleshooting
|
|
531
|
-
|
|
532
|
-
- Make sure you have `node` (v20 or higher) installed by running `node -v`.
|
|
533
|
-
- Make sure the `APIFY_TOKEN` environment variable is set.
|
|
534
|
-
- Always use the latest version of the MCP server by using `@apify/actors-mcp-server@latest`.

This is most commonly caused by a **corrupted npx cache** — often left behind when Claude Desktop restarts the MCP server process mid-download. Fix it by clearing the cache:
|
|
541
|
-
|
|
542
|
-
```bash
|
|
543
|
-
# macOS / Linux
|
|
544
|
-
rm -rf ~/.npm/_npx
|
|
545
|
-
npx -y @apify/actors-mcp-server@latest

#### Errors like "File is not defined" or "ReadableStream is not defined"
|
|
555
|
-
|
|
556
|
-
You are running an **outdated version of Node.js**. The Apify MCP server requires Node.js **v20 or higher**:
|
|
557
|
-
|
|
558
|
-
```bash
|
|
559
|
-
node -v # Check your version
|
|
560
|
-
```
|
|
561
|
-
|
|
562
|
-
If your version is below 20, update Node.js from [nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org).
|
|
563
|
-
|
|
564
|
-
#### Server works in Claude Desktop chat but not in cowork mode
|
|
565
|
-
|
|
566
|
-
This is a known issue we are investigating. As a workaround, try using the hosted server at [mcp.apify.com](https://mcp.apify.com) instead of the local stdio server.

### Checking logs
|
|
569
|
-
|
|
570
|
-
If you encounter issues, check the Claude Desktop logs for error details:
|
|
571
|
-
|
|
572
|
-
- **macOS**: `~/Library/Logs/Claude/`
|
|
573
|
-
- **Windows**: `%APPDATA%\Claude\logs\`
|
|
574
|
-
- **Linux**: `~/.config/Claude/logs/`
|
|
575
|
-
|
|
576
|
-
### Debugging the NPM package
|
|
577
|
-
|
|
578
|
-
To debug the server, use the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector) tool:
|
|
579
|
-
|
|
580
|
-
```shell
|
|
581
|
-
export APIFY_TOKEN="your-apify-token"
|
|
582
|
-
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx -y @apify/actors-mcp-server
|
|
583
|
-
```
|
|
529
|

For step-by-step troubleshooting, see the [Claude Desktop integration guide](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/claude-desktop) in the Apify documentation.
