Clarification on MCP Server URL and Versioning During ChatGPT App Update Submission

What I am observing now is that even though I have submitted a new version, updated the input_schema, added new tools, and updated the MCP Server, the new functionality has not taken effect and the new tools cannot be triggered.

This suggests that the system is still using the old cached version and is not parsing or invoking the newly added tools. My assumption is that the new tools will not become available until the new version has been approved.

Fortunately, we made the schema forward-compatible; otherwise, users invoking the old tools would also run into errors.

Our app has now been under review for two weeks and has still not been approved. It is possible that the review timeline has become longer again.
