Connect ChatGPT
Connect your Trove library directly with ChatGPT using Trove’s secure MCP endpoint.

These steps need a paid ChatGPT subscription. Free accounts can only use plugins listed in ChatGPT’s plugin store, and Trove is not listed there yet, so a free account cannot complete this walkthrough.
Add Trove as a custom plugin
1
Open Plugins
In the ChatGPT sidebar, select Plugins.
2
Add a new plugin
Click the + button next to Search plugins.
3
Enter Trove’s details
Name it Trove MCP. Under Connection, keep Server URL selected and paste the Trove MCP endpoint above. Leave Authentication set to OAuth.
4
Acknowledge the risk notice
In the same dialog, ChatGPT warns that custom MCP servers introduce risk, because OpenAI hasn’t reviewed them. Tick I understand and want to continue, then click Create.
5
Sign in with Trove
ChatGPT shows Add Trove MCP to ChatGPT. Click Sign in with Trove MCP and sign in to your Trove account.
6
Approve the connection
Trove lists what ChatGPT will and won’t be able to do with your library. Check the account shown is yours, then click Approve.
7
Try it
Start a new conversation and ask a Trove question, such as “What tools does Trove have?”
From ChatGPT Plugins
Trove is pending listing in the ChatGPT Plugins directory. Until then, use the custom plugin steps above.
Once listed: in ChatGPT, open Plugins, search for Trove, click Connect, sign in to Trove and authorize.
