…n all versions The ChatGPT MCP setup guide stated unconditionally that users "will see a confirmation prompt" when tools are invoked. Newer ChatGPT Desktop versions may auto-approve tool calls without showing this dialog, which caused user confusion about whether Firecrawl was actually being called. Updated the wording to "may see" and added guidance on how to verify tool invocation when no prompt appears. Co-Authored-By: micahstairs <micah@sideguide.dev>

Context
Newer ChatGPT Desktop versions (e.g., 1.2026.43) may auto-approve MCP tool calls without showing a confirmation dialog. The previous unconditional wording caused user confusion about whether Firecrawl was actually being invoked. The updated text directs users to check for the "Called tool" section in responses or review their usage dashboard to confirm tool execution.
