   OpenAI's Gmail plugin summarizes unread threads, drafts replies and works through long email chains from a chat: "Summarize unread Gmail threads from today" or "Draft a reply to the latest email from finance".

   Notion's own plugin bundles the Notion connection with four skills: knowledge capture, meeting intelligence, research documentation and spec-to-implementation. It turns a PRD into implementation tasks or preps tomorrow's meeting from your Notion docs, and because ChatGPT and Codex share one directory, the same plugin works in a coding session.

ChatGPT plugins: frequently asked questions

Is there still a ChatGPT plugin store?

Yes, under a new name. ChatGPT's Plugin Directory (the Plugins tab, or chatgpt.com/plugins) replaced the App Directory on July 9, 2026, and it's where plugins are listed today. The original 2023 plugin store is gone: it stopped new installs on March 19, 2024, and existing plugin chats ended on April 9, 2024.

How do I enable plugins in ChatGPT?

There's nothing to switch on. The old Settings > Beta features > Plugins toggle belonged to the 2023 plugins. Open the Plugins tab, install a plugin and start a new chat. In a Business, Enterprise or Edu workspace, your admin decides which plugins members can install. You only need developer mode to connect an MCP server of your own (how to add one).

Are ChatGPT plugins free?

The Plugin Directory is available on every ChatGPT plan, including Free, so you don't need a subscription to browse and install plugins. Whether a particular plugin shows up still depends on your plan, workspace, role and region. Many plugins connect to services with their own pricing, so some features need a paid account with that service.

Do ChatGPT plugins work in Codex?

Yes. ChatGPT and Codex share one Plugin Directory, so public plugins show up in both. Codex supports plugins in the ChatGPT desktop app and in the Codex CLI, where /plugins opens the plugin browser; the IDE extension doesn't. Use plugins in Codex covers setup.

Can I use ChatGPT plugins on my phone?

Yes. On mobile you can use the plugins available to your account in Chat and Work. Plugins marked Desktop only don't appear there; you install and run them in the ChatGPT desktop app. If you don't see an install option on mobile, install the plugin on the web or desktop, then use it from your phone.

Are ChatGPT plugins safe to use?

A plugin acts through the account you connect, so treat it like any app you give access to. Check who publishes it (official listings come from OpenAI or the service's own company), read the permissions the service asks for, and since June 2026 you can set ChatGPT to ask before connected apps make changes. Our plugin security checklist goes further.

Are GPTs being replaced by plugins?

Starting with Enterprise, yes. On September 11, 2026 OpenAI told Enterprise admins that custom GPTs are being retired in favour of plugins, and its migration FAQ lists December 11, 2026 as the date Enterprise GPTs stop running. OpenAI says the dates may change and that other plans may follow.

Can I build and publish my own ChatGPT plugin?

Yes. A plugin is a folder with a plugin.json manifest that points to its skills and MCP server configuration. You can test it in a local marketplace first, then submit it through OpenAI's plugin submission portal; approved plugins are listed in the directory that ChatGPT and Codex share. Public plugins need a public HTTPS endpoint. Our guide to publishing a ChatGPT plugin walks through it.
