Observed

Connectivity itself is broadly confirmed, but the bridge is not a transparent pass-through: it silently coerces array, object, number, and boolean parameters to strings, breaking connectors with strict Zod schemas with no error signal (source-reviewed, validated 2026-05-03). User-level config placed in ~/.claude/mcp.json is silently ignored — only ~/.claude.json is honored — and .mcp.json servers load at session initialization only, so mid-session config changes have no effect until restart.

1. UPDATE 2026-06-28: MCP parameter coercion remains open (#32524, 9 duplicates); ~/.claude.json confirmed as the sole honored user-level config path.
2. UPDATE 2026-07-04(v2.1.201): #32524 (numeric/array/object/boolean coercion, 9 duplicates, 'has repro') was closed by stale-bot as not-planned on 2026-07-03 — a stale closure, not a fix; no coercion fix appears in the v2.1.196–201 changelog, so the bypass remains unaddressed and the row holds at partial. Not TD-executed this pass (no strict-Zod connector round-trip run). The two user-config-path issues behind the ~/.claude/mcp.json gap, #56437 and #62888, also closed not-planned (stale) on 2026-06-02 and 2026-06-27.
