## Title

    [Claude Code] claude.ai connector shows 'connected · session token rejected' / 'claude.ai rejected the session token. Run /login, then reconnect.' — Claude Code login expired; re-authorizing the conn…

## Body

    Cause (Documented platform behavior): claude.ai rejected the token from the Claude Code login (not the connector's own authorization). Before v2.1.222 this was mislabeled as the connector needing authentication.
    
    Fix status: documented_behavior
    
    Misleading approaches:
    - Re-authorizing the connector in claude.ai — the rejected token is the Claude Code login.
    - Trusting '/mcp reconnect <server>' success before /login — it reports success while the token is still rejected.
    
    Other error fragments:
    - connected · session token rejected
    - your claude.ai session token was rejected
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://code.claude.com/docs/en/errors.md (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): 'claude.ai rejected the session token' entry: login token rejected, re-authorizing the connector doesn't resolve it; run /login then reconnect; typed /mcp reconnect reports success even though token still rejected; pre-v2.1.222 behavior differed.
    
    Search phrasings: claude.ai rejected the session token Run /login; Claude Code connector session token rejected; claude code claude.ai connector not working after login expired
    
    Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
