BRING YOUR AI / REMOTE MCP

Your model.
Samin’s shelf.

The standalone site retrieves evidence without running a model. Connect this read-only library to ChatGPT or Claude when you want your signed-in AI client to reason over the transcript context.

MCP, IN PLAIN ENGLISH

A bridge to tools and context—not another model.

MCP stands for Model Context Protocol, an open standard that lets an AI client call external tools. Here, it lets ChatGPT or Claude search and fetch read-only evidence from Samin’s library. It does not provide a model or move your AI account login into this site.

STANDALONE SITERetrieval only

No model runs here, so it uses no model inference tokens. Recommendations are full videos only; Shorts remain in Library browse.

CHATGPTSupported

ChatGPT stays the host and performs inference in the member’s signed-in ChatGPT session.

CLAUDESupported · beta

Claude can add the same URL as a custom remote MCP connector and handles its own inference.

REMOTE ENDPOINTPaste this into your MCP client
https://ask-samin.vercel.app/mcp

Use the public HTTPS URL after deployment. Localhost is only for local preview.

ChatGPT setup

Connect once. Then share the build context.

  1. 01

    Enable ChatGPT Developer mode

    Open Settings → Security and login, then turn on Developer mode. If the toggle is unavailable, your workspace admin must allow it.

  2. 02

    Create a developer-mode app

    Open Settings → Plugins (or chatgpt.com/plugins, opens in a new tab), select plus, then create a developer-mode app and paste https://ask-samin.vercel.app/mcp.

  3. 03

    Choose the app in a new chat

    Select + near the composer, choose More, then select Ask Samin. Start with your goal; the guide asks for your stage, tools, and blocker before recommending full videos.

A useful distinction about “Login with ChatGPT”

A ChatGPT or Claude account is not a transferable API key. With the MCP route, the AI client remains the host, performs inference in the member’s signed-in session, and calls this library as a tool. This app does not capture or reuse the member’s AI account credentials.

This production build deliberately uses remote MCP instead of the third-party Login with ChatGPT SDK, opens in a new tab. That SDK can keep refreshable ChatGPT credentials on an application server and spend the member’s plan; this connector design avoids taking custody of those credentials.

This connects a private developer-mode app. Publishing to the plugin directory is a separate, reviewed submission step.
