4.B. if you made direct contributions, then I am assuming that you know this amount (like from your checkbook). I say this because figuring out the 2023 direct contribution from the 5498-SA is convoluted for the taxpayer (read the instructions for Box 2 for the 5498-SA at the Instructions for "Forms 1099-SA and 5498-SA" - note that this document starts with the 1099-SA.
Once you have done 4.A and 4.B, you have entered what you needed to for your HSA for 2023. I don't know why you've gotten 1099-SA most years, if you didn't take anything out of the HSA...
