Phantom '1 failed' MCP server when cloud connectors disabled via feature flag

Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Apr 16, 2026 by arshadwala Closed Apr 20, 2026

Description

When tengu_claudeai_mcp_connectors is set to false in ~/.claude.json to disable the claude.ai MCP connectors (Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive), /status still reports "1 failed" MCP server. However, /mcp shows no failed servers — all listed servers are connected and healthy.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Set tengu_claudeai_mcp_connectors to false in ~/.claude.json
  2. Start Claude Code
  3. Run /status — shows "X connected, 1 failed"
  4. Run /mcp — no failed servers listed, all servers show connected

Expected behavior

/status should show 0 failed servers when all visible MCP servers are connected.

Environment

  • Claude Code 2.1.112
  • macOS (Apple Silicon)
  • Native install (~/.local/bin/claude)
