Connect Knowbase to ChatGPT using Developer Mode

ChatGPT supports custom remote MCP connectors through Developer Mode.

Developer Mode is available on ChatGPT's Pro, Plus, Business, Enterprise, and Education plans (web only).

Enable Developer Mode

1. Go to Settings → Apps (Connectors).

2. Open Advanced settings → Developer mode and toggle it on.

Add Knowbase

1. In Apps settings, click Create app (next to Advanced settings — only visible once Developer Mode is on).

2. Enter the Knowbase MCP server URL:

   https://mcp.knowbase.ai/mcp

3. Choose OAuth authentication, then sign in with your Knowbase account and approve access.

4. Knowbase now appears as a Developer Mode tool in conversations.

Using it in a chat

Open the "+" menu → Developer Mode, select Knowbase, then prompt explicitly, for example: "Use the Knowbase app's search_library to find …".

Developer Mode is powerful — ChatGPT asks you to confirm before any write action. Knowbase's tools are read-only (search and list), so they only ever read from your library.
