# MongoDB Tools Setup

Run `/mongodb-tools:setup` to configure MongoDB MCP.

## Quick Fixes

- **Authentication failed** - Add `?authSource=admin` to connection string
- **Invalid connection string** - Use `mongodb://` or `mongodb+srv://` prefix
- **Network timeout** - Whitelist IP in Atlas Network Access

## Don't Need MongoDB?

Disable via `/mcp` command to prevent errors.
