    A pre-flight checklist for shipping a Claude connector

    <p>Writing an MCP server is the easy part. Shipping one as a Claude connector means passing four gates that have nothing to do with your business logic: Anthropic's network can reach you, Claude can get an OAuth client identity, a human reviewer approves your tool design, and you…
