Fix Action

Fix / Workaround

Current workaround

RAW_BUFFERClick to expand / collapse

Problem

The /mcp command is not available when connected via Remote Control. When an MCP server connection drops during a remote session, there's no way to reconnect without physical access to the machine.

Use case

I'm using an MCP bridge to query a remote sales data server. The SSE connection drops periodically, and /mcp is needed to reconnect. When working via Remote Control this is a dead end - you have to get back to the machine to run /mcp.

Expected behaviour

/mcp (and specifically the reconnect functionality) should work over Remote Control sessions, the same as it does locally.

Current workaround

None - requires physical access to the machine running Claude Code.

extent analysis

TL;DR

Enable the /mcp command to work over Remote Control sessions to allow reconnecting to the MCP server without physical access.

Guidance

  • Investigate the current implementation of the /mcp command to understand why it's not available via Remote Control.
  • Check the Remote Control configuration to see if there are any settings that can be adjusted to allow the /mcp command to work.
  • Consider implementing a temporary workaround, such as a script that can be run locally to reconnect to the MCP server, until a permanent solution is found.
  • Review the documentation for the MCP bridge and Remote Control to see if there are any known limitations or workarounds for this issue.

Notes

The exact solution will depend on the specific implementation of the /mcp command and the Remote Control system being used.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Implement a script that can be run locally to reconnect to the MCP server, as this will provide a temporary solution until the /mcp command can be enabled to work over Remote Control sessions.
