Question 1

How do I add Neobrutalism MCP to ChatGPT?

Accepted Answer

On chatgpt.com: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → enable Developer Mode. Then Settings → Apps → Create App. Name it Neobrutalism, set MCP Server URL to your registry URL including `?token=` (from Dashboard → MCP), accept the security notice. Desktop inherits apps from the web.

Question 2

Does ChatGPT use OAuth for Neobrutalism MCP?

Accepted Answer

Neobrutalism authenticates with a registry token in the URL. You paste that full URL as the app’s MCP Server URL. You don’t need a separate Bearer header or OAuth flow for our server.

Question 3

How do I use Neobrutalism tools in a ChatGPT conversation?

Accepted Answer

Start a new chat → click + → hover More → select the Neobrutalism app. Or say “use Neobrutalism” so ChatGPT attaches the app. Then ask it to search the registry or install a block.

Question 4

I don’t see Developer Mode or Apps — what now?

Accepted Answer

Developer Mode is beta and limited to Pro, Plus, Team, Enterprise, and Edu plans. Confirm your plan and that Advanced settings is available on chatgpt.com (not only the desktop app).

Question 5

ChatGPT Desktop vs web for Neobrutalism MCP?

Accepted Answer

Configure the app on the web first. The desktop app shares apps configured on chatgpt.com — no separate Desktop-only MCP config for custom apps.

Question 6

Do I need Neobrutalism Pro for ChatGPT MCP?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The MCP tools unlock Pro blocks and source. Without Pro you get 403 after a valid token; without a token you get 401. Upgrade on neobrutalism.com — same token works in ChatGPT.

Question 7

Where do I get the URL / token for the ChatGPT app?

Accepted Answer

Dashboard → Account for the token, or Dashboard → MCP for a pre-filled URL. Paste that full URL into the Create App form.

Question 8

Is it safe to put my token in the ChatGPT MCP Server URL?

Accepted Answer

It’s the same personal, revocable registry token as the CLI. Don’t share screenshots of the Create App form with a live token; rotate from the dashboard if needed.

Question 9

Can my team each connect ChatGPT to Neobrutalism?

Accepted Answer

Each teammate needs their own Neobrutalism Pro access (or Team/Org seat) and their own registry token configured as their own ChatGPT app.

Question 10

What can ChatGPT do with Neobrutalism MCP?

Accepted Answer

With the app attached, ChatGPT can call the same tools as other clients: search, block/component source, previews, and token-ready install commands.

Question 11

How is this different from browsing neobrutalism.com in ChatGPT browsing?

Accepted Answer

Browsing only sees public HTML. MCP returns structured registry data and Pro source when your token is Pro — the same API the site and CLI use.

Question 12

Can ChatGPT install a Pro block into my repo?

Accepted Answer

ChatGPT can return a `shadcn add` command with your token embedded. You still run that command in your project environment (local terminal or Codespaces).

Question 13

Which backend does ChatGPT get — Base UI, Radix, or React Aria?

Accepted Answer

Ask for the backend you use (default Base UI). Source is flattened before return.
