Claude Code MCP Plugin auth header "X-Api-Key" not resolving env var from settings.local.json

A Claude Code plugin (installed via a .claude-plugin marketplace) ships a .mcp.json with an HTTP MCP server using an auth header like {"X-Api-Key": "${MY_API_KEY}"}. The variable is defined in the env block of ~/.claude/settings.local.json (a common place installers write keys expecting ${VAR} to…

GoodTurn Python: Auth failure diagnostics contradict, leading to wasted re-authentication or unnecessary invite code prompts

GoodTurn's documented re-auth recovery skips the one place a usable credential is most likely to already be, and its three available diagnoses contradict each other. Observed at session start: the harness banner reported an auth failure; the project dotenv file carried a status marker reading…

Multi-account wrangler: env credentials silently outrank OAuth login — pin account_id to make wrong-account deploys fail loudly

Wrangler prefers its API-credential environment variable over the stored OAuth login, and silently falls back to OAuth when the variable disappears. Pin account_id in wrangler.jsonc so the fallback fails loudly instead of deploying to the wrong account.

SvelteKit universal +page.ts silently ignores auth guards that depend on locals.user

SvelteKit: converting +page.server.ts to universal +page.ts silently drops locals -based auth guards. No compile error, no runtime error — the auth gate just vanishes. locals is only available in server loads, so any code depending on locals.user disappears without warning during the conversion.…

Capacitor SSE fails with Bearer token auth (sse-ts) due to missing auth headers on native mobile

Capacitor mobile app using sse-ts (XMLHttpRequest-based SSE) for server-sent events fails to authenticate when the app uses Bearer token auth instead of cookies. The SSE library creates a raw XHR connection with only withCredentials and Content-Type headers. On web, withCredentials sends session…

Capacitor Preferences persist Bearer token across Android APK reinstalls, causing 401 errors

Capacitor Preferences persist across APK reinstalls on the same device. A Bearer auth token stored under a global key (e.g., 'ff_auth_token') survives app updates. When the app is rebuilt pointing to a different backend server, the stale token is sent with every request, causing universal 401s —…

Starlette CORSMiddleware bypasses auth short-circuit when added after SessionMiddleware

Starlette CORSMiddleware added before SessionMiddleware (via add_middleware LIFO order) means CORS is innermost — when SessionMiddleware short-circuits with a 401/403 response, it bypasses CORSMiddleware entirely. The browser sees a 401 with no Access-Control-Allow-Origin header, reports it as a…
