Tools & capabilities
Ghl Command Feedback tools 5
get_mcp_versionCheck the installed version of GHL Command against the latest version published to npm. Use this to confirm an upgrade landed after restarting Claude. Returns installed version, latest version, whether up-to-date, and the one-line restart instruction if not.setup_ghl_mcpFirst-run setup AND license upgrades for GHL Command. Validates your license and GHL credentials, then writes them to a per-user credentials file; restart Claude once after it completes. UPGRADING an existing install (e.g. free key to paid)? Supply ONLY email + license_key — the GHL credentials and any Workflow Builder unlock already saved on this machine are reused and kept; do not re-enter ghl_api_key or ghl_location_id. No license yet? Paid ($97/mo) at https://ghlcommand.com — or a FREE read-only key, instantly, at https://ghlcommand.com/free.request_licenseGet a GHL Command license. Use this if you installed from npm but don't have a license yet (or setup_ghl_mcp says your license is missing/invalid). GHL Command is $97/mo — every sub-account you manage, 3-machine activation, includes the only programmatic GHL workflow builder. There's also a FREE read-only tier (account audits + all reads on your own account) — instant key at https://ghlcommand.com/free. Leave your email and we'll send the purchase link + setup help; the tool also returns where to buy right now.auto_capture_firebase_scriptGet the browser-console script that auto-extracts the 3 Firebase fields needed to enable the Workflow Builder. PREFER `capture_firebase_interactive` when Chrome/Edge is installed (one-click, zero pasting); this script is the fallback for locked-down machines and the path for capturing a CLIENT account's Firebase (multi-tenant). Run this, copy the script, paste it into Chrome DevTools Console on a tab logged into GHL, press Enter, and the result lands in your clipboard. Then paste the JSON into setup_ghl_mcp's firebase_paste field (or enable_workflow_builder's).capture_firebase_interactiveOne-click Workflow Builder unlock (EASIEST PATH — try this before auto_capture_firebase_script). Also the unlock for the FREE tier's account auditor (audit_workflows, validate_workflow) — same one-time login. Opens a Chrome window where you just log into GHL; GHL Command captures the Firebase credentials itself and saves them. No DevTools, no pasting. Re-run the same tool if the first call says it's still waiting for your login. After the first successful run, future re-captures (refresh-token rotations) happen silently with no window at all. Falls back cleanly: if no Chrome/Edge is installed, use auto_capture_firebase_script instead.
