## ๐ฏ Core Concept
This is an [MCP server](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) that establishes **feedback-oriented development workflows**, adopting a **pure Web UI architecture**, perfectly adapting to local, **SSH Remote environments** (Cursor SSH Remote, VS Code Remote SSH), and **WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) environments**. By guiding AI to confirm with users rather than making speculative operations, it can consolidate multiple tool calls into a single feedback-oriented request, dramatically reducing platform costs and improving development efficiency.
**๐ Web-Only Architecture Advantages:**
- ๐ **Simplified Deployment**: No GUI dependencies, lighter installation
- ๐ **Cross-Platform Compatibility**: Supports all operating systems and environments
- ๐ง **Easy Maintenance**: Unified Web interface, reduced complexity
- ๐ฆ **Compact Size**: Removed heavy GUI libraries, significantly smaller installation package
**๐ฎ Future Plans:** We plan to reintroduce desktop applications after feature stabilization, currently focusing on Web UI feature enhancement and optimization.
**Supported Platforms:** [Cursor](https://www.cursor.com) | [Cline](https://cline.bot) | [Windsurf](https://windsurf.com) | [Augment](https://www.augmentcode.com) | [Trae](https://www.trae.ai)

### 3. Prompt Engineering Setup
For best results, add these rules to your AI assistant:
```
# MCP Interactive Feedback Rules
1. During any process, task, or conversation, whether asking, responding, or completing stage tasks, must call MCP mcp-feedback-enhanced.
2. When receiving user feedback, if feedback content is not empty, must call MCP mcp-feedback-enhanced again and adjust behavior based on feedback.
3. Only when user explicitly indicates "end" or "no more interaction needed" can you stop calling MCP mcp-feedback-enhanced, then the process is complete.
4. Unless receiving end command, all steps must repeatedly call MCP mcp-feedback-enhanced.
5. Before completing the task, use the MCP mcp-feedback-enhanced to ask the user for feedback.
```

## ๐ Common Issues
### ๐ SSH Remote Environment Issues
**Q: Browser cannot launch in SSH Remote environment**
A: This is normal behavior. SSH Remote environments have no graphical interface, requiring manual opening in local browser. For detailed solutions, see: [SSH Remote Environment Usage Guide](docs/en/ssh-remote/browser-launch-issues.md)
**Q: Why am I not receiving new MCP feedback?**
A: There might be a WebSocket connection issue. **Solution**: Simply refresh the browser page.
**Q: Why isn't MCP being called?**
A: Please confirm the MCP tool status shows green light. **Solution**: Toggle the MCP tool on/off repeatedly, wait a few seconds for system reconnection.
**Q: Augment cannot start MCP**
A: **Solution**: Completely close and restart VS Code or Cursor, then reopen the project.
### ๐ง General Issues
**Q: How to use the legacy GUI interface?**
A: v2.4.0 has completely removed PyQt6 GUI dependencies and transitioned to a pure Web UI architecture. To use the legacy GUI, please specify v2.3.0 or earlier versions:
```bash
# Use v2.3.0 (last version supporting GUI)
uvx mcp-feedback-enhanced@2.3.0
# Or specify version in MCP configuration
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-feedback-enhanced": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["mcp-feedback-enhanced@2.3.0"],
"timeout": 600,
"autoApprove": ["interactive_feedback"]
}
}
}
```
**Note**: Legacy versions do not include v2.4.0 new features (prompt management, auto-submit, session management, etc.).
**Q: Getting "Unexpected token 'D'" error**
A: Debug output interference. Set `MCP_DEBUG=false` or remove the environment variable.
**Q: Chinese character garbled text**
A: Fixed in v2.0.3. Update to latest version: `uvx mcp-feedback-enhanced@latest`
**Q: Multi-screen window disappearing or positioning errors**
A: Fixed in v2.1.1. Go to "โ๏ธ Settings" tab, check "Always show window at primary screen center" to resolve. Especially useful for T-shaped screen arrangements and other complex multi-monitor configurations.
**Q: Image upload fails**
A: Check file format (PNG/JPG/JPEG/GIF/BMP/WebP). System supports image files of any size.
**Q: Web UI won't start**
A: Check firewall settings or try using a different port.
**Q: UV Cache taking up too much disk space**
A: Due to frequent use of `uvx` commands, cache may accumulate to tens of GB. Regular cleanup is recommended:
```bash
# Check cache size and detailed information
python scripts/cleanup_cache.py --size
# Preview cleanup content (without actually cleaning)
python scripts/cleanup_cache.py --dry-run
# Execute standard cleanup
python scripts/cleanup_cache.py --clean
# Force cleanup (attempts to close related processes, solves Windows file lock issues)
python scripts/cleanup_cache.py --force
# Or use uv command directly
uv cache clean
```
For detailed instructions, see: [Cache Management Guide](docs/en/cache-management.md)
**Q: AI models cannot parse images**
A: Various AI models (including Gemini Pro 2.5, Claude, etc.) may have instability in image parsing, sometimes correctly identifying and sometimes unable to parse uploaded image content. This is a known limitation of AI visual understanding technology. Recommendations:
1. Ensure good image quality (high contrast, clear text)
2. Try uploading multiple times, retries usually succeed
3. If parsing continues to fail, try adjusting image size or format
