Unclear It is not stated what causes one MCP server's tools to be replaced by another's.
What
MCP servers are outside programs that give Claude Code extra tools. When a server's tools are taken away, Claude Code tells the model why, using reasons such as disabled, switched off or not configured. There is now another reason: the tools were replaced in this session by the tools of a named MCP server, and the model should use those instead.
Why
If one server's tools are swapped for another's partway through a session, Claude knows where the tools went instead of failing to find them.
