The keepalive timer was sending notifications/tools/list_changed every 30 seconds, which caused Claude Code to re-fetch the tool list and clear its cached editor state (file path, cursor position). This made Claude lose track of the user's context on every ping cycle. Replace the MCP-level notification with a WebSocket-level ping frame, which keeps the connection alive without touching the MCP protocol layer or triggering any state reset in Claude Code.
