What's Wrong?

Steps to Reproduce

$ claude mcp add --transport streamable-http asana https://mcp.asana.com/v2/mcp
Invalid transport type: streamable-http. Must be one of: stdio, sse, http

OK, then I guess then the docs are wrong for Asana on https://code.claude.com/docs/en/mcp:

Not sure where the right place to report that is.
