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).

Changes in docs/mcp.mdx

  • Permissions & Access — Replaced "Admin setup required" note with "MCP is enabled by default; admins can disable in Settings → Org → Overview"
  • Service Accounts prerequisites — Removed the "MCP must be enabled by an org admin" step
  • Security Considerations — Updated access controls bullet from "off by default / must be explicitly enabled" → "on by default / can be disabled"
  • Troubleshooting — Reworded both MCP-access error entries to reflect disabled-not-missing framing

Fixes TOF-303

TOF-303

MCP is now enabled by default for all organizations.
Admins can disable it in Settings → Org → Overview if needed.

- Update Permissions & Access note to reflect on-by-default
- Remove "MCP must be enabled" from Service Accounts prerequisites
- Update Security Considerations bullet from off-by-default to on-by-default
- Update Troubleshooting to say "disabled" instead of "not enabled"

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: 3/5

The 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

Important Files Changed

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.

    P1 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.
