Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: developers.openai.com.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned openai/skills at 49f948faa9.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables developers to build and manage ChatGPT App SDK applications. It facilitates the creation of custom tools by scaffolding new projects, refactoring existing codebases, and providing troubleshooting assistance for applications that integrate a Microsoft Copilot (MCP) server with widget user interfaces. The primary purpose is to streamline development workflows for apps leveraging the ChatGPT Apps platform.

When to use it

  • Creating Custom Tools: When you need to rapidly prototype or build new tools integrated with ChatGPT, this skill can generate initial project structures and code.
  • Refactoring Existing Applications: If your existing ChatGPT App SDK application needs restructuring or improvements, this skill can assist in the refactoring process.
  • Troubleshooting Integration Issues: When encountering problems connecting an MCP server to a widget UI within a ChatGPT app, use this skill for debugging and resolution.
  • Registering UI Resources: When you need assistance with registering user interface resources for your application.

Key capabilities

  • Builds ChatGPT App SDK applications.
  • Scaffolds new projects.
  • Refactors existing codebases.
  • Troubleshoots MCP server and widget UI integration.
  • Registers UI resources.

Example prompts

  • "Create a scaffold for a new ChatGPT app with a simple text input widget."
  • "Refactor my existing application to improve the connection between the MCP server and the user interface."
  • "I'm getting an error connecting my MCP server; can you help me troubleshoot?"

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires familiarity with the ChatGPT Apps SDK and Microsoft Copilot (MCP) architecture. Successful use relies on understanding the underlying principles of how these components interact.
