Connect ChatGPT (developer mode)

ChatGPT can drive Contentpipe as a custom MCP connector. Custom connectors live behind Developer Mode, which you enable once, then add the Contentpipe server URL and sign in.

Plan requirement

Custom MCP connectors need Developer Mode, available on ChatGPT Plus and Pro (and Business / Enterprise / Edu, where a workspace admin may disable it or allowlist specific connectors). Developer Mode must stay enabled to use the connector.

What you'll need​

  • The Contentpipe MCP endpoint:

    https://mcp.contentpipe.app

    (equivalently https://jionfqfmjinkrmzlsghf.supabase.co/functions/v1/mcp)

  • A Contentpipe account to sign in with. The connector authenticates over OAuth 2.1 — see MCP authentication. Until GitHub/Google go live, sign-in is email/password, so use a disposable, project-scoped account you control.

1. Enable Developer Mode​

  1. Open ChatGPT and go to Settings → Connectors.
  2. Open the Advanced section.
  3. Toggle Developer Mode on.

2. Add the Contentpipe connector​

  1. Back in Settings → Connectors, click Create.
  2. Fill in the form:
    • Name — e.g. Contentpipe
    • Server URL — https://mcp.contentpipe.app
  3. Check "I trust this provider."
  4. Click Create. ChatGPT starts the OAuth handshake — it registers itself automatically (dynamic client registration) and sends you to the Contentpipe sign-in and consent screens. Approve access.
Developer Mode connectors can write

A connected client can take real actions in Contentpipe — create drafts, submit for review, publish promos on manual channels. It acts as you: RLS scopes it to exactly the projects your account can access, and it can never skip a pipeline status (invalid transitions are rejected). Only add servers you trust, and sign in with an account scoped to what you want the connector to touch.

3. Enable it in a chat​

The connector must be turned on per conversation:

  1. Start a new chat.
  2. Click the + button → More → Developer Mode.
  3. Enable the Contentpipe connector.

Its tools are now available for that conversation. Ask ChatGPT to, say, "show the Contentpipe pipeline status for workjournal" or "draft the next stub in the Launch week campaign" — see the tools reference for the full surface.

Re-enable each session

Turning the connector on is per-chat. Once enabled it stays active for the whole conversation, but a new chat starts with it off — enable it again from the + → More → Developer Mode menu.
