What

When Claude Code loads a plugin that brings its own MCP servers (external programs that give Claude extra tools), it now collects a warning for each of those servers that still needs configuration before it can be used.

Why

You may get a clearer message when a plugin's MCP server is not set up, instead of it silently not working.
