[BUG] GitHub connector fails to register OAuth client ("No se pudo registrar con el servicio de inicio de sesión de GitHub")

What's Wrong?
When trying to connect the GitHub connector from Claude desktop app (Settings → Connectors → Add → GitHub), the OAuth flow fails immediately with:
"No se pudo registrar con el servicio de inicio de sesión de GitHub. Puedes intentarlo de nuevo o agregar un ID de cliente OAuth en la configuración del conector."
("Could not register with the GitHub login service. You can try again or add an OAuth client ID in the connector configuration.")
This happens every time I try to connect, with a new reference ID each attempt:
- ofid_bd465599733a4a62
- ofid_b80143fc7e6996d2
- ofid_c974a82f9050e7f1
Steps to reproduce:
- Open Claude desktop app → Settings → Connectors
- Click "Agregar" → search "GitHub" → select it
- Click "Otorgar acceso a GitHub"
- A new browser tab opens asking to complete GitHub login
- It fails with the error above before completing
Additional context: I also had a leftover custom connector pointing to a repo URL (https://github.com/EdgarArtificialab/ClaudeRutines.git) instead of a valid MCP server endpoint, which failed separately with "Verifica que la URL apunte a un servidor MCP válido" — expected, since that connector was misconfigured. The main issue is the official GitHub connector's OAuth dynamic client registration failing server-side.
Platform: Windows 11, Claude desktop app

What Should Happen?
The GitHub connector should successfully complete OAuth registration and connect, allowing repositories to be listed and selected in Rutinas/Code without any error.

Additional Information
This is affecting the "Rutinas" (Routines) / Code feature in Claude.ai, which requires connecting a GitHub repository. Without a working GitHub connector, this feature is unusable.
