Problems with MCP Server using Claude

I have had a task in Claude for a few weeks that worked just fine. Then all of a sudden it stopped ("Noteplan not running" was common). I would screw around for a while and then it would work for a few days and then stop. I have been playing with this for over a week now and can get it to work reliably. Claude's last statement was (which, of course, might be a diversion):"Still no luck. At this point it's clearly not a connection or configuration issue on your end — you've done everything right. This is a bug in the NotePlan MCP server itself. I'd file a report with Eduard and include:get_tasks returns "NotePlan not running" even when it islist_filters works fine (same connector, same session)noteplan_eventkit works fineIntermittent — works some days, not othersPersists through plugin restarts, full NotePlan relaunches, and connector reinstalls"Side question: when I look at the connectors in Claude there are TWO Noteplan connectors, once with a capital N and the other all lower case. Is this correct?

This sounds like a troubleshooting case, best is to email us at hello[at]noteplan.co. In your particular case it sounds like you have two connectors installed. One from the public connectors from Anthropic and another you might have installed manually?

That sounds possible but I haven't found a way to remove the "noteplan" connector but i can deinstall the "Noteplan" connector. I will send an email as noted above.
