DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Claude Code v2.1.182

disableClaudeAiConnectors Setting

What

A new boolean setting that prevents Claude Code from automatically fetching and connecting claude.ai MCP cloud connectors.

Details
  • Set in any settings source:
  { "disableClaudeAiConnectors": true }
  • Any-source-true wins: a project can opt out (set true), but a project-level false cannot override a user-level true
  • Only gates auto-fetched connectors; a claudeai-proxy server passed explicitly via --mcp-config or the SDK mcpServers option still follows the normal MCP config trust flow
  • Useful for air-gapped environments, strict compliance setups, or projects requiring explicit MCP server control
Evidence

New settings schema field — search for "When true in any settings source, claude.ai MCP cloud connectors are not auto-fetched or connected."

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
