What

Failed MCP connections can now attach a displayDetail explaining why, and the CLI surfaces it instead of just showing a bare status.

Details
  • displayDetail is optional, threaded through the failure constructor and appended to the user-visible error.
  • The Authorization-header rejection path attaches Error detail: plus the server response body when that body is non-empty.
  • claude mcp list builds its status line as the status, an em dash and the issue; claude mcp get prints an Issue: line.
  • The "! Connected · tools fetch failed" status now carries the underlying error as its issue.
