chatgpt-apps

chatgpt-apps is a skill for Codex from Hipson47/Hipson. It costs 96 tokens per session (4,183 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of chatgpt-apps, Apache-2.0.

A toolkit for building ChatGPT Apps SDK projects that combine a server using the Model Context Protocol with an interactive widget. The workflow covers the app structure, server tools, widget connection, and project checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scaffold, refactor, or troubleshoot ChatGPT apps, including their server tools, widget UI, connection bridge, metadata, security settings, and local setup.
Why use it?
It gives developers a documented starting point for the parts an app needs to work inside ChatGPT. It also helps decide the project shape and verify that the basic files and connections are present.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

chatgpt-apps scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/scaffold_node_ext_apps.mjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

ChatGPT Apps

Overview

Scaffold ChatGPT Apps SDK implementations with a docs-first, example-first workflow, then generate code that follows current Apps SDK and MCP Apps bridge patterns.

Use this skill to produce:

  • A primary app-archetype classification and repo-shape decision
  • A tool plan (names, schemas, annotations, outputs)
  • An upstream starting-point recommendation (official example, ext-apps example, or local fallback scaffold)
  • An MCP server scaffold (resource registration, tool handlers, metadata)
  • A widget scaffold (MCP Apps bridge first, window.openai compatibility/extensions second)
  • A reusable Node + @modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps starter scaffold for low-dependency fallbacks
  • A validation report against the minimum working repo contract
  • Local dev and connector setup steps
  • A short stakeholder summary of what the app does (when requested)

Mandatory Docs-First Workflow

Use $openai-docs first whenever building or changing a ChatGPT Apps SDK app.

  1. Invoke $openai-docs (preferred) or call the OpenAI docs MCP server directly.
  2. Fetch current Apps SDK docs before writing code, especially (baseline pages):
    • apps-sdk/build/mcp-server
    • apps-sdk/build/chatgpt-ui
    • apps-sdk/build/examples
    • apps-sdk/plan/tools
    • apps-sdk/reference
  3. Fetch apps-sdk/quickstart when scaffolding a new app or generating a first-pass implementation, and check the official examples repo/page before inventing a scaffold from scratch.
  4. Fetch deployment/submission docs when the task includes local ChatGPT testing, hosting, or public launch:
    • apps-sdk/deploy
    • apps-sdk/deploy/submission
    • apps-sdk/app-submission-guidelines
  5. Cite the docs URLs you used when explaining design choices or generated scaffolds.
  6. Prefer current docs guidance over older repo patterns when they differ, and call out compatibility aliases explicitly.
  7. If doc search times out or returns poor matches, fetch the canonical Apps SDK pages directly by URL and continue; do not let search failure block scaffolding.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
