Update settings

Change which meetings Fathom records, what it shares after a call and whether it writes action items.

MCP tool fathom_video_write → update_settings

write Confirm

Changes the Settings page fields that get_settings returns; fields you leave out stay as they are. auto_share decides what attendees on the calendar invite get after every call, so a change reaches other people. Auto-generate action items needs a Premium or Team plan. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
