# Verify Setup

> Run a fast end-to-end check against a local pwno-mcp instance.

Most users can skip this page, but it is useful when you are validating a new client config or debugging a first-time setup issue.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Ask your agent to run a tiny debugger flow">
    ```text theme={null}
    Use pwno-mcp to create a debug session called chal-a, load /workspace/chal, set a breakpoint at main, run the program, show full context, then step once.
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check the expected behavior">
    You should see the session created, the binary loaded, execution stop at `main`, a full context snapshot returned, and one successful step.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Fall back to manual tool calls if needed">
    If your agent cannot complete the flow, run the sequence below through any MCP inspector or compatible client.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<CodeGroup>
  ```text Agent prompt theme={null}
  Use pwno-mcp to create a debug session called chal-a, load /workspace/chal, set a breakpoint at main, run the program, show full context, then step once.
  ```

  ```json Manual tool calls theme={null}
  {"tool":"create_debug_session","arguments":{"session_id":"chal-a"}}
  {"tool":"set_file","arguments":{"binary_path":"/workspace/chal","session_id":"chal-a"}}
  {"tool":"set_breakpoint","arguments":{"location":"main","session_id":"chal-a"}}
  {"tool":"run","arguments":{"args":"","start":false,"session_id":"chal-a"}}
  {"tool":"get_context","arguments":{"context_type":"all","session_id":"chal-a"}}
  {"tool":"step_control","arguments":{"command":"n","session_id":"chal-a"}}
  ```
</CodeGroup>

If you followed [Quick Start](/quickstart), the host path is `./workspace/chal` and the in-container tool path is `/workspace/chal`.

<Check>
  Common stepping commands are `c`, `n`, `s`, `ni`, and `si`.
</Check>

If this flow fails, go straight to [Troubleshooting](/troubleshooting) or check the transport, session, and path rules in [Core Concepts](/concepts/transports-and-runtime).
