In USB mode it appears that the image generation is failing, so it can't do OCR to extract text.  Even if cloud mode is slow, I'd be willing to live with it to give it a go, but it fails with bad request, despite me copying and pasting the generated key output from the terminal.\n\nAny suggestions are welcome!\n\n[Read the thread](https://github.com/SamMorrowDrums/remarkable-mcp/issues/94) · 2026-05-20 · closed · external user · 6 comments\n\n### remarkable_read fails in cloud mode with coroutine error\n\n## Description\n\n`remarkable_read()` fails in cloud mode (both 0.7.0 and 0.8.0) with the following error:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"_error\": {\n    \"type\": \"read_failed\",\n    \"message\": \"the JSON object must be str, bytes or bytearray, not coroutine\",\n    \"suggestion\": \"Check remarkable_status() to verify your connection.\"\n  }\n}\n```\n\n## Reproduction\n\n1.

A client that doesn't pass the flag follows the annotation-only path: a page with ink renders as bare strokes floating on the background with no PDF page beneath them, and a page without ink falls back to rasterizing the clean source PDF. Neither response mentions the missing layer.
