Plugin status now shows "required by your org" when a loaded MCP plugin is mandated by org settings
The status report shown by /plugin (and claude mcp) now adds the text "required by your org" next to a plugin's status line when that plugin is enabled and your organization's settings mark it as required. This is shown alongside the existing statuses for disabled plugins, plugins that loaded with errors, and plugins that loaded normally.
This makes it clear at a glance which plugins are enabled because your organization requires them, rather than by your own choice, so you understand why a plugin can't simply be turned off.

The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.
Connectors are the [claude.ai integrations](/docs/en/mcp#use-mcp-servers-from-claude-ai) on your account. MCP servers you added locally in the CLI with `claude mcp add` are stored on your machine rather than your claude.ai account, so they…routines see the edit
* Improved `claude mcp serve`: a running tool call now sends a progress update every 30 seconds, so clients show it is still running and idle timeouts don't abort a long command that prints nothingchangelog see the edit
