[BUG] /mcp shows unconnected integrations (Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive) as connected

What's Wrong?
When running /mcp in Claude Code, the built-in Google integrations (Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive) are listed alongside actually connected MCP servers. There's no indication that these integrations haven't been authorized — they appear the same as any connected server.
This is misleading because:
- I never connected these integrations, and on claude.ai they correctly don't show as "connected", but have a "Connect" button.
- In Claude Code, /mcp presents them as if they're "connected" and ready to use.
- Only when you actually try to call one of these tools do you get a "requires re-authorization (token expired)" error.
What Should Happen?
/mcp should either hide unconnected integrations, or clearly mark them as "not connected" / "requires authorization" so users can distinguish them from servers that are actually working.
