3
+ ## 3.59.0 — One-command install: `npx -y @elitedcs/ghl-mcp cli install`
4
+
5
+ The old install step said "Edit Config, paste this block." Edit Config opens a
6
+ folder, not a text box — and the block was a complete config object, so anyone
7
+ who already had other MCP servers and followed the instruction literally wiped
8
+ them. A real buyer hit exactly that this week.
9
+
10
+ This release replaces the hand-edit with one command:
11
+
12
+ npx -y @elitedcs/ghl-mcp cli install
13
+
14
+ It finds Claude Desktop's settings file (including the Microsoft Store build's
15
+ relocated path on Windows), adds GHL Command **alongside** whatever servers are
16
+ already there, and saves a verified backup before touching anything. If the
17
+ file has a formatting problem — often caused by our own old instructions — it
18
+ repairs what it can and preserves the original in the backup. If the file can't
19
+ be read at all, it writes a fresh working config and keeps the original so
20
+ nothing is ever lost.
21
+
22
+ Safety properties, all tested (33 new tests):
23
+
24
+ - **Never writes without a verified backup** of an existing file, and aborts if
25
+ the backup can't be confirmed byte-for-byte.
26
+ - **Never fights Claude for the file**: writes are atomic, lock errors retry
27
+ briefly then stop with plain instructions, and if anything else modifies the
28
+ file mid-run it stops rather than overwrite the newer change.
29
+ - **Never guesses between multiple config files** — it stops and asks.
30
+ - **Never touches** symlinked configs pointing somewhere unexpected, UTF-16
31
+ files, or files whose content it can read but not safely restructure.
32
+ - `--dry-run` previews every decision without writing; `--print-only` emits the
33
+ merged JSON for locked-down machines.
34
+
35
+ Also in this release: the license-failure message now points at ghlcommand.com
36
+ (and mentions the free tier) instead of a retired page, and `setup_ghl_mcp`'s
37
+ description finally includes a URL for people who reach it without a license.
