OpenAI Apps SDK Examples

Use it when

• You are building a ChatGPT app and need your MCP tool results to render as interactive inline UI components instead of plain text
• You need a working reference for wiring widgetState, callTool, and window.openai host APIs between an MCP server and a ChatGPT widget

What it solves

Not the fit when

• Not a production-ready app; demo servers persist state in memory and the README says carts should be persisted server-side in production
• Requires ChatGPT developer mode to test end to end
• production widget hosting
• end-user auth at scale
• browser automation
• general chat UI outside ChatGPT
