MCP is only enabled by default for new free and growth accounts created after August 1, 2026. All other accounts still require an org admin to enable it. - Permissions & Access: two-tier note distinguishing new free/growth accounts (on by default) from all others (admin required) - Service Accounts prerequisites: restore step 4 requiring admin enablement, with caveat for new accounts - Security Considerations: restore "must be enabled by admin" bullet with note about new account default - Troubleshooting: restore original wording for admin enablement

Confidence Score: 3/5The doc changes are mostly correct but the troubleshooting section was left unchanged, contradicting the PR description and leaving guidance that doesn't fit new-account users. Three of four sections were correctly updated. The troubleshooting section — which the PR description explicitly said was reworded — still tells users to "enable MCP" without any nuance for accounts where MCP is on by default and may have been disabled. A user on a post-Aug-2026 account following that guidance could be confused or send their admin on a wild goose chase. docs/mcp.mdx — specifically the Troubleshooting section around lines 447–449

| Filename | Overview |
|---|---|
| docs/mcp.mdx | Permissions, Service Accounts, and Security Considerations sections correctly updated for new-account default-on behavior; troubleshooting section was not updated as the PR description promised, leaving "enable MCP" framing that doesn't fit the disabled-not-missing scenario for new accounts. |

docs/mcp.mdx, line 447-449 (link)Troubleshooting not updated as described
The PR description and the Linear ticket state that both MCP-access error entries were reworded to reflect "disabled-not-missing" framing, but the diff shows no changes to these lines. For new Free & Growth accounts (post Aug 1, 2026) where MCP is on by default, a user hitting this error likely had MCP disabled rather than never enabled — so "Ask your org admin to enable MCP" is misleading framing for that cohort. Both entries should note that admins on newer accounts may need to re-enable a setting that was turned off, not enable one that was never on.

MCP is now enabled by default for all net new free & growth orgs — admins can disable it, but no setup is required to connect. The docs previously stated the opposite (off by default, admin must enable).
