Early access: this setup may change

This manual setup is a temporary workaround. We're working with OpenAI to approve the app and make installation easier.

The illustrated example below uses ChatGPT. For Claude or Codex, see the short instructions at the end.

1. Enable MCP in KaoJai Admin

  1. Use Starter or higher: view plans and subscribe.
  2. If MCP is unavailable, request early access from KaoJai.
  3. In KaoJai Admin → Integrations → MCP, select your workspace and turn on MCP. Ask an Owner if the switch is unavailable.

2. Turn on ChatGPT Developer mode

In ChatGPT, go to Settings → Security and login → Developer mode and turn it on.
