The author discovered that two critical API helper functions in their MCP server, used for interacting with GitHub and DEV.to, lacked any error handling. Unlike other functions that had been progressively hardened, these two would crash the server with raw Python tracebacks when encountering common issues like invalid IDs or expired tokens. The author contrasts this with a more robust error handling pattern already implemented for a Claude API wrapper, which returns a clean error message instead of an unhandled exception. AI
