Remote MCP server "Connect" button produces zero network requests (OAuth flow never starts)

Hey, thanks for the report. This is a known issue, there’s already a duplicate here: MCP Servers with auth do not open browser anymore

Two workarounds fix it for now:

  1. Click the “Needs authentication” text under the MCP server name (not the “Connect” button).
  2. Or copy the auth URL from Output > MCP:[server name] and open it manually in your browser.

The team is aware of this bug, and your report helps with prioritization.
