Description

When working in Windows 11 inside Git Bash this MCP server gives the following warning for Claude Code:

[Warning] [next-devtools] mcpServers.next-devtools: Windows requires 'cmd /c' wrapper to execute npx

The same seems to be the cause of Claude Code not being able to auto-discover other MCP servers.
