Its not harmfull to the plant, means good soil. You can just pluck it out if you want or you can leave it, either or is fine

But also know that they will come back. Mushrooms have a really complex root system.

Thank you!

In my experience they die off in a few days, but don't do any harm the plant

Scoop it out. If you wait too long, it can give off spores and is more likely to keep coming back.
