What

A headersHelper is a command that supplies headers for connecting to an MCP server (an outside tool server). Claude Code only runs it in a folder you have marked as trusted. When it skips the command, the message used to say only that the workspace had no saved trust. It now explains more:

  • If the session has moved but still reads the .mcp.json of the folder it was launched in, the message says that folder has no saved trust and suggests setting projects[...].hasTrustDialogAccepted.
  • For your home directory, it says that trust there lasts only for the current session.

The folder the helper command runs in now also depends on where the server was set up.

Why

If an MCP server's headers stop working after a session changes folder, the message now tells you which folder needs trust and what to set.
