Slack feedback: Can't save an MCP server config, but can create a new one with the exact same config JSON. Is it related to secrets? Kinda confusing why and what I can do about it, or if it's a bug.

Slack message: https://warpdev.slack.com/archives/C08KTPNQN65/p1774610414964769

Requested follow-up:

  • Reproduce editing/saving an existing MCP config vs creating a new one with identical JSON
  • Verify whether secret handling/redaction causes save to fail
  • Improve UX/error messaging so users understand why save failed and how to recover

Linear: APP-3657
