# Validation Errors

> Errors for input/output validation failures and method mismatches.

## Overview

Validation errors are thrown when input parameters fail schema validation, when tool output doesn't match the expected schema, when an HTTP method doesn't match, or when a required prompt argument is missing.

## Error Reference

### InvalidInputError

Thrown when input parameters fail Zod schema validation. This is a public error — validation details are included in the response to help clients fix their requests.

| Property           | Type      | Value                        |
| ------------------ | --------- | ---------------------------- |
| `code`             | `string`  | `INVALID_INPUT`              |
| `statusCode`       | `number`  | `400`                        |
| `isPublic`         | `boolean` | `true`                       |
| `validationErrors` | `any`     | Zod validation error details |

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
new InvalidInputError(message?: string, validationErrors?: any)
```

**Example:**

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
import { InvalidInputError } from '@frontmcp/sdk';

throw new InvalidInputError('Validation failed', {
  field: 'email',
  reason: 'Invalid format',
});
```

### InvalidOutputError

Thrown when a tool's output does not match the declared output schema. This is an internal error — schema details are not exposed to clients.

| Property     | Type      | Value            |
| ------------ | --------- | ---------------- |
| `code`       | `string`  | `INVALID_OUTPUT` |
| `statusCode` | `number`  | `500`            |
| `isPublic`   | `boolean` | `false`          |

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
new InvalidOutputError(errorId?: string)
```

If a custom `errorId` (e.g., a request ID) is provided, it is included in the public message for correlation. Otherwise, a generic message is returned.

**Example:**

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
import { InvalidOutputError } from '@frontmcp/sdk';

throw new InvalidOutputError('req_abc123');
// Client sees: "Output validation failed. Please contact support with error ID: req_abc123"
```

***

### InvalidMethodError

Thrown when a request uses the wrong HTTP method (e.g., GET instead of POST).

| Property     | Type      | Value            |
| ------------ | --------- | ---------------- |
| `code`       | `string`  | `INVALID_METHOD` |
| `statusCode` | `number`  | `400`            |
| `isPublic`   | `boolean` | `true`           |

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
new InvalidMethodError(method: string, expected: string)
```

**Example:**

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
import { InvalidMethodError } from '@frontmcp/sdk';

throw new InvalidMethodError('GET', 'POST');
// "Invalid method "GET". Expected "POST""
```

***

### MissingPromptArgumentError

Thrown when a required prompt argument is not provided by the caller.

| Property     | Type      | Value                     |
| ------------ | --------- | ------------------------- |
| `code`       | `string`  | `MISSING_PROMPT_ARGUMENT` |
| `statusCode` | `number`  | `400`                     |
| `isPublic`   | `boolean` | `true`                    |

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
new MissingPromptArgumentError(argName: string)
```

**Example:**

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
import { MissingPromptArgumentError } from '@frontmcp/sdk';

throw new MissingPromptArgumentError('topic');
// "Missing required argument: topic"
```
