What's Wrong?

I added several MCP servers to our project via .mcp.json. Now, I'm trying to remove one, but removing from .mcp.json does not remove it. claude mcp remove returns "No MCP server found with name: <server name> in .mcp.json". Specifying scope does not help (I've tried all scopes).

What Should Happen?

You should be able to remove MCP servers added via .mcp.json.
