Description
The github@claude-plugins-official plugin fails to authenticate with error:
"Incompatible auth server: does not support dynamic client registration"
Environment
- Claude Code version: 2.1.12
- OS: Windows
- Plugin: github@claude-plugins-official (enabled in ~/.claude/settings.json)
Error Details
Status: failed
Auth: not authenticated
URL: https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/
Error: Incompatible auth server: does not support dynamic client registration
Expected Behavior
The GitHub plugin should authenticate successfully, either:
- Using standard GitHub API (api.github.com) instead of Copilot endpoint
- Or supporting GitHub Copilot's OAuth flow
Workaround
Disabling the plugin removes the error, but loses GitHub functionality.
