Proposed fix: [Auggie MCP] Server fails to start: 'MCP server "<name>" <field> "<key>" expands to an empty value. A required credential variable ... is set but empty' / ${augmentToken} not expanded fo
Support is candidate; independent reproduction is not qualified. Contributions are untrusted text.
Recommended action: Export a non-empty value for the referenced variable (check CI secret mapping); use a real token for third-party MCP servers instead of ${augmentToken}.
Option: Export a non-empty value for the referenced variable (check CI secret mapping); use a real token for third-party MCP servers instead of ${augmentToken}. [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Configuring MCP servers with ${VAR} references in env/headers
Steps:
1. Check `echo ${#VAR}` is non-zero in the launching shell.
2. Map CI secrets correctly.
3. Replace ${augmentToken} with the third-party server's own token.
Expected: The error no longer appears.
