All MCP connectors (Linear, Slack, Google Calendar, Intercom, PostHog) show as connected in Settings → Connectors, but new Code sessions only receive GitHub. ToolSearch returns no matches for any non-GitHub connector even after 60+ seconds of retries.

Description

All MCP connectors (Linear, Slack, Google Calendar, Intercom, PostHog) show as connected in Settings → Connectors, but new Code sessions only receive GitHub. ToolSearch returns no matches for any non-GitHub connector even after 60+ seconds of retries.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Connect multiple MCP connectors via Settings → Connectors
  2. Verify they appear as connected
  3. Open a new session
  4. Run ToolSearch for any non-GitHub connector
  5. All return "No matching deferred tools found" after 60s of retries

Expected

All connected connectors available in every new session.

Actual

Only GitHub loads. Sessions inherited from a parent conversation work fine.

Environment

Claude Code Desktop, macOS Apple Silicon

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue may be resolved by investigating the ToolSearch functionality and its interaction with connected MCP connectors, potentially involving a configuration or synchronization issue.

Guidance

  • Verify the connection status of non-GitHub connectors in the Settings → Connectors page to ensure they are properly linked and authenticated.
  • Investigate the ToolSearch implementation to determine why it returns "No matching deferred tools found" for non-GitHub connectors, focusing on potential issues with data synchronization or caching.
  • Check for any differences in how GitHub connectors are handled compared to other MCP connectors, as sessions inherited from a parent conversation work fine.
  • Review the connector configuration and authentication processes to ensure they are correctly set up for all connected MCP connectors.

Example

No code snippet can be provided without more context about the ToolSearch implementation and the connector integration code.

Notes

The issue seems to be specific to the Claude Code Desktop environment on macOS Apple Silicon, and the root cause may be related to the ToolSearch functionality or the connector integration. Further investigation is needed to determine the exact cause.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by reviewing and adjusting the connector configuration and authentication processes, as well as investigating the ToolSearch implementation, to identify and resolve the potential synchronization or caching issue.
