MCP tool response: structuredContent displayed instead of content[0].text when both present

Bug

When an MCP tool response includes both content (array with {type:"text", text:"..."}) and structuredContent (a JSON object), Claude Code displays the structuredContent JSON instead of the markdown text in content[0].text.

Reproduction

Connect any MCP server that returns both fields in a tool result. The tool will appear to return only the metadata JSON object rather than the actual text content.

Example tool response from the server:
\\\json
{
"content": [{"type": "text", "text": "# Example Domain\n\nThis domain is for use..."}],
"structuredContent": {"source": "readability", "share_id": "af40b73a", "quality": 1, "cached": false}
}
\\\

What Claude Code displays to the user:
\\\
{"source":"readability","share_id":"af40b73a","quality":1,"cached":false}
\\\

What should be displayed:
\\\`

Example Domain

This domain is for use...
\\\`

Environment

• Claude Code version: 2.1.121
• MCP server: pullmd (self-hosted URL-to-Markdown service, https://github.com/AeternaLabsHQ/pullmd)
• Transport: Streamable HTTP (stateless)

Expected behavior

content[0].text should be surfaced as the tool result text. structuredContent is a secondary machine-readable annotation and should not replace the primary text content.

Workaround

Removing structuredContent from the tool response causes Claude Code to correctly display content[0].text.
