Troubleshooting
Symptom-first fixes for common mm CLI issues.
Start with mm doctor
Run mm doctor first to inspect CLI version, skill compatibility, authentication, and
initialization:
mm doctor
The output includes authenticated, initialized, compatible, and actionable hints.
Fix each hint, then re-run mm doctor until both authenticated and initialized are true.
Authentication and initialization are independent.
A session can be authenticated but not initialized, which causes NOT_INITIALIZED on wallet
commands.
Authentication and access
AUTH_FAILED, TOKEN_INVALID, or TOKEN_REFRESH_FAILED
Sign in again:
mm login browser
mm auth status
For CI or headless agents:
mm login browser --no-wait
mm login --token "<cliToken:cliRefreshToken>"
ALREADY_AUTHENTICATED
You already have a valid session.
Run mm logout before signing in again.
COMING_SOON on mm login qr
QR sign-in is not available in production. Use browser sign-in instead:
mm login browser
NOT_INITIALIZED
Run setup before wallet commands:
mm init
mm doctor
Early Access required
If commands fail with authorization errors after sign-in, confirm your account has Early Access at MetaMask Agent Wallet Early Access.
Reset local session
mm reset
mm login browser
mm init --wallet server-wallet --mode guard
mm doctor
Perpetuals
HYPERLIQUID_ERROR or ORDER_REJECTED on first perpetuals trade
Deposit USDC from Arbitrum before opening a position:
mm perps deposit --venue hyperliquid --amount <AMOUNT>
mm perps balance --venue hyperliquid
See Trade perpetuals.
Prediction markets
JsonRpcError: execution reverted on predict deposit
Run setup and fund the predict wallet with Polygon USDC.e:
mm predict setup --wait
mm predict deposit --amount <AMOUNT> --wait
Swaps
NO_QUOTES or no quote ID from mm swap quote
Liquidity may be unavailable for the token pair or chain. Do not call mm swap execute without a
valid quoteId from a successful quote step.
When bridging with --refuel, do not use the flag if the destination token is the destination
chain's native gas asset (for example, bridging ETH to Arbitrum ETH).
The backend returns no quotes in that case.
Swap execute fails after a quote
Re-run mm swap quote and execute immediately. Quotes can expire.
Transfers
Insufficient balance on the target chain
mm transfer only spends balances on the chain specified by --chain-id. Bridge tokens with
mm swap execute first.
ENS names not resolving
ENS is not supported for --to. Use a hex address.
Server-wallet polling
Command returned a pollingId but no hash
Use --wait on signing and transfer commands, or watch the job:
mm wallet requests watch --polling-id <POLLING_ID>
See Architecture.
2FA approval pending
If a job status is AWAITING_MFA, approve or reject the transaction through the channel for your
sign-in method: MetaMask Mobile push (QR sign-in) or the email approval link (browser sign-in).
