Connect ChatGPT

Use a custom MCP app where your ChatGPT account enables developer mode.

Create a custom app

In ChatGPT on the web, open Settings → Security and login and enable Developer mode, where available. Organization policy may require an administrator.

Open ChatGPT Plugins, choose the plus button, and create a developer-mode app from your MCP server. Use SEO Researcher as the name, choose OAuth with dynamic client registration (DCR) if a registration choice appears, and enter:

https://mcp.seoresearcher.ai/mcp

Complete authorization, then select the app for your conversation. Refresh its tools from app settings if discovery is stale. Developer mode supports tools beyond search and fetch; do not rename SEO Researcher’s tools or choose a read-only search integration that cannot start research.

This is a custom app setup, not a claim that SEO Researcher is listed in the public app directory. Availability and approvals depend on your account. If developer mode is unavailable, use another client in the setup directory.

Check that it works

Ask your agent:

Use SEO Researcher to list my most recent research job (limit 1).
Do not start research. Report whether the call succeeded, including
when the account has no saved jobs.

A successful seo_research_list response—even an empty list—confirms authenticated access. Merely saving the URL or seeing a login screen does not. Then follow your first research workflow. If authorization does not return, use connection troubleshooting.
