Building a ChatGPT Site that uses only a client’s approved models

Simon Smith says he dropped his Dot into a Slack thread about a client’s strict AI rules and asked for a ChatGPT Site that uses only approved models; it was built and launched in under an hour.

What it is

Simon Smith (@_simonsmith) posted that a client has strict requirements for AI use, which rules out many apps. The team discussed it in Slack. He dropped his Dot into the thread and asked for a ChatGPT Site that uses only approved models, and it was done in under an hour. He lists hiccups: the Dot said an OpenAI API key could only be added server side, but he added one manually in site settings; it could not properly test whether WebMCP worked; and it added many unnecessary text elements and callout boxes. He says that overall it was pretty awesome. The post includes an image; this page does not describe its contents. This page restates that user post.
