Claude Code shows corpole as failed
The MCP server is listed but not connected. Usually Claude Code has neither a token nor an OAuth sign-in for it.
For: Team developer, Solo builder
Why it happens
The Corpole plugin sends a token when it finds one in CORPOLE_TOKEN or in ~/.config/corpole/token. Without a token it sends none, and Claude Code signs in with OAuth instead. If neither has happened yet, the server shows as failed or needing authentication.
Fix it
- Run
/mcp, select corpole and choose Authenticate. Sign in to Corpole, pick the project and approve. - Or set a token: create a personal token in Agents → Agent tokens, then either export
CORPOLE_TOKENin the shell Claude Code starts from, or save it to~/.config/corpole/token. - Restart the Claude Code session so it picks up the token.
Adding the server without the plugin
claude mcp add --transport http corpole https://corpole.com/api/mcp, then /mcp → Authenticate.
