ChatGPT Integration

Connect BaseLayer to ChatGPT so it can search your knowledge vault and maintain context across conversations.

Setup

  1. Go to chatgpt.comSettings → Apps
  2. Click Add Custom App (or Add MCP Server)
  3. Enter the server URL:
    https://api.baselayer.id/mcp
    
  4. Complete the OAuth flow: sign in with your BaseLayer account and click Allow
  5. Done. ChatGPT can now access your vault
ChatGPT’s MCP support is relatively new. The exact settings path may vary as OpenAI updates the interface. Look for MCP or custom app settings.

Using it

Once connected, you can reference BaseLayer in your conversations:
“Search my BaseLayer for anything about the payments project.”
“What do I know about Sarah’s work on the API redesign?”
“Remember that we’re switching to Kubernetes for deployment.”
ChatGPT will call the appropriate BaseLayer tools (recall, remember, etc.) to search and update your vault.

Verify the connection

Ask ChatGPT:
“Can you check my BaseLayer vault status?”
It should call the status tool and report your vault statistics.

Disconnect

Go to Settings → Apps in ChatGPT and remove the BaseLayer connection.
