Developer Mode missing from Security & Login on ChatGPT Pro

ChatGPT Bugs
10

Hey folks,

I run the Plugins developer platform team at OpenAI. Apologies for the confusion here, I’m pushing an update to the docs that clarifies the situation as we speak.

TL;DR:

  • We have removed the need to enter an explicit “developer mode” to connect custom MCP servers in ChatGPT
    • Instead, all eligible users can now connect custom MCP servers to ChatGPT! :tada:
  • You can connect custom MCP servers by going to chatgpt.com/plugins → Clicking “Add” → Clicking “Create MCP App”
    • We will rename “Create MCP App” to “Create custom MCP server” today so that this is clearer.
  • The “Enforce CSP for custom apps” setting also still exists and has moved to Settings → Security and login chatgpt.com/settings/security
  • For workspace admins: we have renamed the “Developer mode” RBAC setting to “Create custom MCP servers” and persisted your existing configuration.
    • That means nothing changes for you other than the label on the setting being different.

Again, I apologize for the confusion here. I hope this clears everything up, let me know if you have any other questions about this.
