Connect ChatGPT
ChatGPT (by OpenAI) connects to Strive as a custom connector that only you can see. You'll need this address:
https://strive.r-ws.net/mcp
Before you start
- A paid ChatGPT plan. Which plans can add their own plugins changes from time to time; the free plan can't.
- On a Business or Enterprise workspace, an admin may have to allow custom plugins first.
- Add it on chatgpt.com in a browser; the apps can't create one.
Connect
- Open Plugins, click Add, then Add custom MCP server.
- Name it Strive. If you like, choose this icon (save it first).
- Under Connection, keep Server URL and paste the address above. Set Authentication to OAuth; leave the advanced OAuth settings alone.
- Add it, then sign in to Strive in the window that opens and click Allow.
No "Add custom MCP server"? Your plan or workspace may not allow custom plugins yet; on some accounts it appears after switching on Developer mode in the advanced settings.
Use it
Type @Strive in any chat, then say "What am I doing today?" ChatGPT asks you to confirm before anything is changed.
When Strive gets new features, open Plugin settings → Strive → View details, click the gear (Manage) and choose Refresh tools so ChatGPT sees them.

Something not working?
See common problems. ChatGPT changes its menus from time to time; if a step here doesn't match what you see, look for "connectors", "apps" or "MCP" in its settings.
