What

When Claude Code cannot read a file it uses for MCP servers (external services that give Claude extra tools), its log message now says that servers are probed with server/discover. The message used to speak only of claude.ai connectors.

A new switch, tengu_bubbly_meteor, is also present. It is controlled from Anthropic's servers and falls back to on when the server sends nothing, combined with a second condition.

Why

The wording change makes the log message apply to MCP servers in general rather than to claude.ai connectors only.
