Operating system
Linux 6.8.0-124-generic - Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS
Expected behaviour
- MCP servers should load in CLI chat sessions
- Locally-defined explicit servers (command/args) should work regardless of registry availability
- Registry parse failures should not block the entire MCP system
Actual behaviour
- The CLI connects to q.us-east-1.amazonaws.com to fetch registry data
- The response JSON is missing a value field the CLI expects
- This failure blocks ALL MCP operations — even locally-defined servers that don't need the registry
Steps to reproduce
- Ran kiro-cli doctor — no MCP-related issues found
- kiro-cli restart not available (minimal install)
- Verbose logs (kiro-cli mcp list -vvv) confirm successful TLS connection to q.us-east-1.amazonaws.com but JSON
deserialization fails
- Kiro IDE parses the same registry response without issues — suggests the CLI parser is out of date with the
registry response schema
