ChatGPT uses your agent account through Artil’s MCP server. In a
Work chat or a dot it can watch the agent’s new email or texts, act on each one
as it arrives, and answer from the agent’s address or number.
Connect
- Open ChatGPT Plugins, select the plus button,
then Add custom MCP server.
- Paste
https://mcp.artil.dev/mcp, name it Artil, and choose OAuth to sign in.
- Select I understand and want to continue, then Create as a plugin,
and install the plugin.
- When ChatGPT asks you to sign in, Artil opens in your browser: choose the
agent and click Allow access.
Watch for new messages
Open a Work chat, on the web or in the desktop app with Cloud selected, or
ask a dot, and tell ChatGPT what to do with each message. For example:
Watch my Artil agent’s email and reply to each new message with a short confirmation.
Send a test email to the agent’s address and check your inbox for the reply.
ChatGPT handles each message as a task and can email you an update about it.
Other ChatGPT chats can read and answer the agent’s messages too, but only Work
chats and dots hear about new ones.
Anyone can write to the agent’s address, so a message can try to steer ChatGPT. Ask it only for
what you are happy for it to do with any message.
Stop
Ask ChatGPT in the chat to stop watching. To disconnect it, revoke its sign-in
on the agent’s Tokens tab; that also ends everything it was watching.
