If you're using the remote MCP server (mcp.railway.com), OAuth access tokens are short-lived (1 hour) and the client may not always refresh them seamlessly, which causes the disconnects. Switching to the local MCP server avoids this since it shares the CLI's persistent authentication. You can set it up by running railway mcp install --agent claude-code (without --remote).

This affects the remote MCP server (mcp.railway.com), whose access tokens last one hour and aren't always refreshed cleanly by the client, which is why the same thing shows up in Codex. The local MCP server avoids it because it rides your CLI's persistent login. Run railway mcp install --agent claude-code without --remote and the daily reconnect goes away. See the MCP docs.
