FAQ from Defeatbeta Api

What transport and protocol does the server use?

The server runs in stdio mode and communicates using JSON-RPC over the Model Context Protocol.

How do I configure an HTTP proxy?

Set the DEFEATBETA_GATEWAY environment variable inside the MCP server configuration (e.g., "env": { "DEFEATBETA_GATEWAY": "http://127.0.0.1:8118" }).

Why do I need to pre-warm the cache?

MCP clients have a 60-second initialization timeout. The first download from GitHub may exceed this limit, causing a connection failure. Pre-warming the cache avoids this.

Which MCP clients are supported?

Manus, Cherry Studio, and Claude Desktop are explicitly mentioned; any MCP client that supports stdio should work.

Does the server require an API key or authentication?

No API keys or authentication are mentioned in the documentation.
