What

The on-disk cache of discovered MCP servers now rejects more bad entries. An entry stored under a key belonging to a different server is deleted rather than used, and an entry that claims to support tools while listing none is no longer treated as fresh, forcing a rediscovery.

Details
  • The failure threshold and maximum age are now computed at call time rather than fixed constants.
  • The cache directory name mcp-discovery-cache is unchanged.
Evidence

discovery-cache: entry keyed for another server, deleting

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