CRITICAL: When helping users debug Aspire applications, use the Aspire MCP tools instead of curl, external HTTP calls, or suggesting manual dashboard inspection.
| Check resource status | listresources | ❌ curl to dashboard API | | Get service logs | listconsolelogs | ❌ curl, docker logs | | View traces | listtraces | ❌ curl to OTLP endpoint | | Find errors in traces | listtracestructuredlogs | ❌ manual dashboard search | | List available AppHosts | listapphosts | ❌ file system search |
If MCP is not configured, guide the user to run aspire mcp init in their AppHost directory.
