Description
## Summary
Connect MCP tool calls for an external user can fail with a `413 account_limit_reached` response:
```
{
"error": "account_limit_reached",
"message": "External user has more than 100 accounts. Use /v1/connect/{project_id}/accounts for the full paginated list"
}
```
even when that external user has well under 100 connected accounts.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing a Connect MCP tool call for an external user with well under 100 live accounts and inspect the account-count logic behind the 413 response. Trace the handling of the `/v1/connect/{project_id}/accounts` endpoint and verify that the call succeeds without `account_limit_reached` until the documented limit is actually reached.
