# Fix: Stale MCP Binary Reference in .mcp.json
## Problem
`~/.claude/.mcp.json` and `~/.claude/.mcp-full.json` both pointed to a non-existent binary:
```
~/.claude/skills/cognitive-memory/mcp-server/cognitive-memory-mcp
```
This binary never existed (or was removed). Claude Code was silently failing to load the MCP server from these configs.
## Root Cause
Old config entries were never updated when the project structure changed. The `.mcp.json` files were stale.
## Fix
Updated both files to match the working config in `~/.claude.json`:
```json
{
"command": "python3",
"args": ["/mnt/NV2/Development/cognitive-memory/mcp_server.py"]
}
```
## Key Insight
`~/.claude.json` was the config Claude Code actually used. The `.mcp.json` / `.mcp-full.json` files can also register servers but were broken. When debugging MCP issues, check `~/.claude.json` first.
