troubleshooting SKILL.md skillC

troubleshooting from mycelium-io/mycelium is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add mycelium-io/mycelium/troubleshooting@git:20261010.bb48287

Diagnose and fix common Mycelium installation and runtime issues. Use when encountering errors with mycelium commands, backend connectivity, Docker containers, LLM configuration, or memory operations. Triggers on "not working", "error", "failed", "cannot connect", "troubleshoot", "debug", "fix".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Mycelium Troubleshooting

Diagnose and fix common installation and runtime issues.

## Quick Diagnostics

Run `mycelium status --json` for machine-readable health data, or `mycelium status` for human-readable output. This checks the backend, the LLM, embedding, Docker, disk, and the data directory.

## Common Issues

### 1. Command Not Found

**Symptom**: `mycelium: command not found`

**Fix**: Reinstall via one of these methods:

```bash
# curl (on an Apple silicon Mac this installs the desktop app and links its CLI;
# add `bash -s -- --client-only` for the CLI alone)
curl -fsSL https://mycelium-io.github.io/mycelium/install.sh | bash

# brew
brew install mycelium-io/tap/mycelium
```

Or via clawhub — tell your agent:
> "install https://clawhub.ai/juliarvalenti/mycelium-io"

Verify: `which mycelium` should show `~/.local/bin/mycelium`

If the binary exists but isn't found, add to PATH:
```bash
export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
```

### 2. Backend Not Running

**Symptom**: `Cannot connect to Mycelium API at http://localhost:8000`

**Diagnosis**:
```bash
mycelium status          # quick check
docker ps | grep mycelium   # container status
```

**Fixes**:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mycelium-io/mycelium/troubleshooting@sha256:16376c71e734ebc0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.bb48287, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
