DELTA CC-08 / Claude Code

~/.claude/mcp.json is silently ignored for user-level MCP config — only ~/.claude.json is honored, with no warning

openopened ≤2026-05

Description

UPDATE 2026-06-28: re-checked as a design gap, not a tracked bug — Anthropic treats ~/.claude.json as the intended user-level path; #56437/#62888 closed not-planned. Recommend retyping from pending-bug to documented design gap.
UPDATE 2026-07-04: #56437/#62888 re-confirmed closed not-planned (stale); design gap unchanged, not TD-executed this pass.

Closes when

Servers defined in ~/.claude/mcp.json load, or the file produces an explicit warning at startup, re-verified
