Homespun

Connect ChatGPT to Homespun

Homespun's connector is a standard OAuth-protected Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint, not a Claude-specific integration, so any chat app that supports remote MCP connectors can use it. In ChatGPT the feature appears wherever custom connectors or MCP servers are configured, which varies by plan and by client version.

  1. Find the connector settings

    Open the ChatGPT settings screen that lists connectors or MCP servers, and choose the option to add a new one.

  2. Add the Homespun server URL

    Give it the name Homespun and the server URL https://homespun.dev/mcp. There is no API key and no client secret to configure: the client registers itself.

    https://homespun.dev/mcp

  3. Complete the sign-in

    Approve the OAuth prompt when it appears. Sign in to Homespun with your email magic link, then approve the consent screen, and the connector reports itself as connected.

  4. Ask for an app

    Describe what you want in the chat. ChatGPT calls the Homespun tools, and you get back a link to a real hosted app you can open and share.

    Not sure what to ask for? The template gallery is a good list of things people actually build.

If your version of ChatGPT has no custom-connector option yet, nothing is lost: use a coding agent instead. Claude Code and Cursor both connect in under a minute, and the apps you build land in the same account.

If something goes wrong

The two most common snags are a blocked pop-up (the sign-in opens in a new window) and a client that needs a restart before new tools show up. The full troubleshooting list covers the rest, and the docs site explains what a connection can and cannot do.

What to build first

Describe what you want in your own words and your AI builds it. If you would rather start from something proven, install one from the template gallery and change it from the chat.
