293293 * You ran `claude mcp add` from a different project. Local-scoped servers are tied to the project where you added them: the repository root, or the exact directory if you weren't in a git repository. Re-add the server from the project you're in now, or add it with `--scope user` so it isn't tied to a project.
294294 * You edited a configuration file at the wrong path. The correct files are `~/.claude.json` and `<project>/.mcp.json`. Claude Code doesn't read paths such as `~/.claude/.mcp.json`, `~/.claude/config/mcp.json`, `~/.claude/mcp.json`, or `%APPDATA%\Claude\mcp.json`. For user-scoped servers, run `claude mcp add --scope user`, which writes to the `mcpServers` key in `~/.claude.json`; for project-scoped servers, edit `.mcp.json` at the project root.
295 * You wrote a malformed entry in `.mcp.json`. Claude Code skips that entry and still loads the others. Run `claude mcp list` from your shell and look for the parse warning, which names the offending field.
