Preflight Checklist

[x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
[x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
[x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

/status reports disabled MCP servers (both claude.ai connectors and built-in ones like computer-use) as "failed." Disabled should be a distinct state from failed — a user who intentionally turned something off, or hasn't opted into an off-by-default feature, shouldn't see a red error indicator for it.

What Should Happen?

Disabled MCP servers should either not show up in /status or show as "x disabled" instead of a red "x failed".

In Claude Code, execute /mcp.

True that duplicate issues was found, but they are closed as duplicates that if you follow the duplication chain eventually end up as "Closed not planned" because of inactivity. Basically real bug reports seem doomed from the start because the Claude Code bot rummaging around here has created a chain of duplicates ending up in an issue closed from inactivity.

In short, none of the duplicates have been resolved, just closed as either duplicates of something else or auto closed as not planned because of inactivity.
