Overview
Both OpenAI tools connect to the same Reap MCP endpoint over OAuth. You sign in to Reap and pick the workspace the tool is allowed to use. The setup differs:- ChatGPT: add Reap as a custom MCP app in connector settings.
- Codex: add Reap as a plugin from the Codex plugins page.
Before You Start
- Your Reap workspace must be on a paid plan with API access enabled.
- You need access to the Reap workspace you want to connect.
- Custom connector and plugin availability depends on your OpenAI plan and workspace settings. Some options are only available to workspace admins or on supported paid plans.
