ChatGPT app directory package

What OpenAI's plugin portal (platform.openai.com/plugins, "With MCP") takes to list MapleStats in the ChatGPT app directory. Requirements were read from OpenAI's submission, review and packaging pages on 2026-11-07.

FileWhat it is
plugin.jsonListing (extensions.com.openai.interface) and review test cases (extensions.com.openai.review). No version and an empty demo_recording_url: the build fills both.
mcp.jsonThe hosted server, streamable-http, auth none.
build_zip.pyWrites build/chatgpt/maplestats-chatgpt-<version>.zip: the two JSON files at the root and site/assets/icon-512.png as assets/logo.png.
check_test_cases.pyRuns each test case's tool calls against the live server and fails on any case that would not pass.
DEMO_VIDEO_SCRIPT.mdShot list and narration for the review video.

tests/test_chatgpt_plugin.py checks the field limits, the 5 + 3 test cases and the ZIP layout without the network.

Steps

  1. uv run python distribution/chatgpt/check_test_cases.py (all eight PASS).
  2. Record the video from DEMO_VIDEO_SCRIPT.md; host it unlisted.
  3. uv run python distribution/chatgpt/build_zip.py --demo-url <video URL>.
  4. In the portal: verify the organization's identity (individual) first, then upload the ZIP, add the server, and copy the domain-verification token.
  5. Set the token as MAPLE_OPENAI_APPS_CHALLENGE on the Azure app; check https://mcp.maplestats.danielstats.io/.well-known/openai-apps-challenge returns exactly the token, then finish the challenge in the portal.
  6. Scan tools, review the form (the category must be one of the dashboard's; Research is a guess) and submit.

Review risks

  • The guidelines ask that each model-callable operation be its own tool and disallow generic executors. MapleStats exposes search_tools, call_tool and plan_query, and call_tool runs any of several hundred data tools by name. A reviewer may read call_tool as a generic executor; be ready to explain the design, or to list the data tools directly for this client.
  • openWorldHint is false on search_tools and plan_query (they read the server's own catalogue) and true on call_tool (public data from outside publishers); the submission form asks for a justification of each.
