When does this happen?
IF MCP client logs 'Unexpected end of JSON input' when attempting to connect to a server, especially if the server command is set to a non-MCP executable like 'echo'.
How others solved it
THEN Replace the placeholder command (e.g., 'echo') with the actual MCP server process (e.g., 'npx', 'uvx', or a full path to the server binary). For PostgreSQL, use a command like 'npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-postgres' followed by a valid connection URI. Remove any nested server objects (e.g., 'server': { 'type': 'tcp', ... })—they are not part of the standard MCP configuration schema.
