Title

Connector does not appear in “Browse Apps” after successful OAuth setup

⸻

Description

Describe the bug
After creating the MCP Shop connector and completing OAuth successfully, the connector never appears in Settings → Apps & Connectors → Browse Apps, making it impossible to enable or use.
The connector is not visible in Developer Mode → Connectors, but ChatGPT does give a flash message that it was added.

⸻

To Reproduce
1. Turn on ChatGPT Developer Mode.
2. Create a new Connector and enable OAuth.
3. Set MCP Server URL to: https://mcp.shop/mcp
4. Complete OAuth sign-in successfully (no errors).
5. Return to Browse Apps.
6. The connector is not listed, and cannot be enabled or invoked using @mcp.shop.

⸻

Expected behavior

After OAuth succeeds, the connector should appear in Browse Apps so that it can be enabled and used in chats. The app should also appear when typing @.

Desktop / Mobile Information
• OS: iOS (iPhone)
• Browser/App: ChatGPT iOS App
• ChatGPT version: latest App Store version
• MCP Client: ChatGPT with Dev Mode enabled

⸻

Additional context
• OAuth completes without issues, so the WorkOS portion appears healthy.
• The issue occurs before the connector is registered as an app.
• Other connectors appear correctly — only MCP Shop fails to register.
• Attempted app refresh, force close, reinstall, and restarting Developer Mode.
