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-levelfalsecannot override a user-leveltrue - Only gates auto-fetched connectors; a
claudeai-proxyserver passed explicitly via--mcp-configor the SDKmcpServersoption 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.
