chatgpt-import

chatgpt-import is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from vellum-ai/vellum-assistant. It costs 15 tokens per session (375 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A procedure for importing ChatGPT conversation history into Vellum, a tool for managing AI prompts and applications. It uses ChatGPT’s exported ZIP archive and converts the conversations into Vellum’s import format.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to export ChatGPT data, parse the ZIP file, import conversations, and report imported, skipped, and message counts.
Why use it?
It removes the need to move conversations manually when switching from ChatGPT to Vellum. Re-imported conversations can be skipped as duplicates.

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-import 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/parse-export.ts), 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.

What it actually says

Import ChatGPT conversation history into Vellum so users can keep their conversation context and memory when switching from ChatGPT.

How to guide the user

When a user wants to import their ChatGPT conversations:

  1. Tell the user how to export. They need to go to ChatGPT Settings > Data controls > Export data. ChatGPT will email them a ZIP file.
  2. Ask the user to upload the ZIP file. Use whatever file upload tools or skills are available to receive the ZIP.
  3. Run the import. Once you have the ZIP file path, run:
bun run scripts/parse-export.ts --file "$ZIP_PATH" | assistant conversations import --json

The parse-export.ts script parses the ChatGPT ZIP and converts it to the standard import format. The assistant conversations import command reads the JSON from stdin and creates the conversations.

The command returns JSON:

{ "ok": true, "imported": 12, "skipped": 0, "messages": 347 }

Report the results — how many conversations and messages were imported, and any skipped duplicates.

Notes

  • Only ZIP files are accepted (the full export archive from ChatGPT).
  • Conversations are deduplicated — re-importing the same file will skip already-imported conversations.
  • Only user and assistant messages are imported (system prompts and tool calls are filtered out).
  • Original timestamps from ChatGPT are preserved.
  • Imported conversations are automatically indexed for memory search.
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
