Mushroom in plant pot please help!

Im not sure if i should take it out is it bad for the plant?
4” pot without drainage
Last watered 2 months ago
@rosegardn mushrooms tend to grow in the soil of some of our outside potted plants as they feed on decaying organic matter. This also means they won’t pose any threat to your plant and can actually be beneficial and provide additional nutrients to your plants.

They do tend to appear when conditions are very humid or moist, so just be sure you aren’t overwatering your plant!
I should add that I leave the mushrooms in the pot with my plants (they tend to grow in the soil with my Arabica coffee plants). They haven’t done any harm!
