While installing Laravel Telescope for PHPORM-168, its installation instructions directed me to run php artisan telescope:install (src: InstallCommand.php). That command automatically added the Telescope service provider to the bootstrap/providers.php file, which is something our own docs suggest doing manually.

The telescope::install command certainly does other things as well, so I'm not sure the overhead is worth it for our integration, but this may be something to consider if it'd streamline our own install process.
