Plugin MCP servers show errors when claude.ai has unconnected connectors with same URL
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Mar 26, 2026 by pantong Closed May 4, 2026
Description
When installing Slack and Linear as Claude Code plugins (via /plugin), the plugin errors tab shows 2 errors even though the plugins are fully functional (authenticated and working):
slack
MCP server 'slack' skipped — same command/URL as already-configured 'claude.ai Slack'
Remove 'claude.ai Slack' from your MCP config if you want the plugin's version instead
linear
MCP server 'linear' skipped — same command/URL as already-configured 'claude.ai Linear'
Remove 'claude.ai Linear' from your MCP config if you want the plugin's version instead
Steps to reproduce
- Install
slackandlinearplugins via/pluginin Claude Code - Authenticate both plugins successfully
- Go to
/plugin→ Errors tab — shows 2 errors
Expected behavior
No errors should appear, since:
- The claude.ai connectors for Slack and Linear are not connected (shown under "Not connected" in claude.ai Settings → Connectors)
- The plugins are installed, authenticated, and working correctly in Claude Code
- Disabling the connectors in
/mcpdoes not resolve the issue — they reappear
Actual behavior
The plugin system detects a URL collision (mcp.slack.com/mcp, mcp.linear.app/mcp) with claude.ai's built-in connector definitions, even though those connectors are not connected/enabled. The errors are cosmetic — the plugins function correctly despite the warnings.
Environment
- Claude Code CLI (macOS)
- Plugins:
slack@1.0.0,linearfromclaude-plugins-officialmarketplace
