What
When connecting to MCP servers (external tool providers via the Model Context Protocol), Claude Code now passes along a set of 'known listings' it already has. A server that's already in this known set is now also treated as eligible to always be loaded.
Why
This avoids repeating discovery work for MCP servers whose tools, commands, and resources are already known, which should make connecting to already-known servers faster.
