# Inspector

> Debug and test your MCP server with a visual interface

The Inspector is a web-based tool for debugging and testing your MCP server. Connect to any Concierge server and interactively explore its capabilities.

## What You Can Do

### List Tools and Resources

Browse every tool and resource your server exposes. The Inspector displays schemas, descriptions, parameter types, and required/optional annotations for each tool.

### Execute Tools and Check Outputs

Click any tool to fill in parameters and execute it. See the raw JSON response, including:

* Return values
* State changes
* Stage transitions triggered
* Errors and validation messages

### View Widget Outputs

When a tool returns a widget, the Inspector renders it inline:so you can see exactly what the end user would see in their AI client.

### Test MCP Capabilities

| Capability        | What the Inspector shows                            |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| **Elicitation**   | Simulates user input requests during tool execution |
| **Prompts**       | List and preview all registered prompt templates    |
| **Sampling**      | Test server-initiated LLM completions               |
| **Notifications** | Monitor real-time events and progress updates       |
| **Resources**     | Browse and read all exposed resources               |

## Launching the Inspector

The Inspector is available in the [Concierge Platform](https://getconcierge.app) after deploying your server with `concierge deploy`.

<Tip>
  The Inspector connects over the same MCP transport as any other client:stdio or HTTP. What you see in the Inspector is exactly what Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client would see.
</Tip>

## Stage Navigation

The Inspector shows the **current stage** and available transitions. You can manually trigger `proceed_to_next_stage` to walk through your workflow step by step and verify that:

* The right tools appear at each stage
* Transitions are enforced correctly
* State persists across stages
