Unclear It is not clear whether a refused legacy grant now blocks the tool, asks for approval, or something else.
What
MCP servers are add-ons that give Claude extra tools. Claude Code checks whether each MCP tool is allowed to run. That check now also responds when an older-style access grant has been refused. It does this when the server comes from a plugin, or when the older ownership check fails.
A separate check now also picks out servers that are not set up through claude.ai and whose names start with a particular prefix.
Why
This tightens how older MCP access grants are honoured.
