Subject: [PATCH] fix(mcp): poll for late ChatGPT window.openai delivery + temp
 host diagnostic
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The window.openai render path didn't resolve the ChatGPT stuck-loading widget. Add a short poll for window.openai.toolOutput (catches a delivery that lands after mount without an openai:set_globals event), and — if nothing renders after ~6s — replace the loading note with a diagnostic of what the host actually exposes (window.openai presence + keys), so we can see inside the cross-origin sandbox iframe. Diagnostic is temporary.
