MCP server build project tool does not work for CPP projects
Recently I started to use the Rider MCP server with Claude Code.
Because CC has a bit of a hard time constructing MSBuild command lines, I wanted to use the build project tool of the MCP server.
But every time CC uses it no build actually occurs and I get a response of: "The project has limited build diagnostics functionality".
Note that I compile c++ projects
What can I do?

Amit Wifi this issue was fixed in the development branch of Rider in the scope of RIDER-136650 Rider MCP build_project tool does not work and will be available in the upcoming Rider 2026.1.1. I cannot give you an exact ETA, but this version of Rider will likely be released within one to two weeks.
