What
The check that decides whether claude.ai connectors (MCP integrations fetched from claude.ai) are disabled previously looked at only one settings source. It now also checks a second, new source, and connectors are treated as disabled if either source sets disableClaudeAiConnectors to true.
Why
This closes a gap where a disableClaudeAiConnectors setting from the second source would have been ignored, so the connector-disable policy is now enforced more consistently.
