I have checked attributes returned from the `fetch logs` query in our instance, no attribute named `dt.source_entity` is being returned due to which tool `get-logs-for-entity` is returning an empty array.

Since the OAuth token cache is in-memory only (`InMemoryTokenCache`), every new session triggers a browser authorization flow. This makes the server unusable for any MCP client that doesn't keep the process alive indefinitely. ## Steps to Reproduce 1. Configure `mcp-server-dynatrace` with `DT_ENVIRONMENT` only (OAuth auth code flow) 2. Start the server — browser opens, authorize su [Read the thread](https://github.com/dynatrace-oss/dynatrace-mcp/issues/542) · 2026-06-14 · closed · external user · 1 comment ### CLI --help and --version require DT_ENVIRONMENT before printing metadata ## Summary The published `@dynatrace-oss/dynatrace-mcp-server` CLI starts environment validation before handling top-level metadata flags. Without `DT_ENVIRONMENT`, `mcp-server-dynatrace --help` and `mcp-server-dynatrace --version` both fail with the same server startup error as a normal launch.
