Give claude.ai a token of its own, sent as a request header
claude.ai's connector dialog does offer request headers, on its second step, after the URL has been probed, so the connector no longer needs the secret path. MCP_AUTH_TOKEN already worked there as a bearer or X-Api-Key, but it also opens /api, which can replace the Schulcloud token and stream the file mirror, and claude.ai stores the header's value. MCP_CONNECTOR_TOKEN is a second token, accepted on /mcp only and refused on /api, and rotated without touching Claude Code or the CLI. The config refuses one shorter than 32 characters, equal to MCP_AUTH_TOKEN, or set without it, and never echoes a value. Every accepted token is compared in full, so the timing does not tell which one matched. The gate also takes a bare Authorization value, because claude.ai sends a header exactly as typed and its docs warn that most servers reject a token entered without "Bearer ". It takes X-Auth-Token too, the other name its dialog offers. The docs now set up the header; the secret path stays as a fallback for clients that cannot send one. 184 tests.
