Description
The claude_design MCP server fails to connect with an HTTP 404 error, even after successfully running /design-login (which reports "Design-system access authorized").
Steps to reproduce
- Run
/design-login→ returns "Design-system access authorized." - Run
/mcpto reconnect → fails with:
````
Failed to reconnect to claude_design: HTTP 404 at https://api.anthropic.com/v1/design/mcp
claude_designtools (e.g.mcp__claude_design__get_claude_design_prompt) remain unavailable in the session.
Expected behavior
After successful authentication via /design-login, the claude_design MCP server should connect successfully and expose its tools.
Actual behavior
The MCP server consistently returns 404 at https://api.anthropic.com/v1/design/mcp, even though:
- claude.ai/design is accessible and working normally in the browser.
/design-loginreports successful authorization.
Environment
- Claude Code CLI
- Platform: macOS (Darwin 25.5.0)
