ChatGPT / OpenAI API¶

Purpose¶

Secondary LLM used for: (a) council review multi-LLM panels where OpenAI's perspective is one of the diverse inputs, (b) research threads on the ChatGPT web app that feed into /Claude/inbox/external-chats/chatgpt/, (c) structured metadata extraction in the ChatGPT → Obsidian integration pipeline (see /Users/rhartley/Downloads/ChatGPT to Obsidian/).

How we use it¶

Council review skill — invoked for high-stakes decisions where multi-LLM diversity matters (per CLAUDE.md Section 10, SOP-EXEC-council-review-v1.0)
External research — Rick uses ChatGPT web app for research conversations; those conversations route into the vault via the external-chats inbox pattern
Historical ChatGPT import (2026-03-03) — 71 business-relevant conversations were imported from a full ChatGPT data export into the old production taxonomy. Rehoming to /knowledge/research/external-chats/chatgpt/ is pending (Task 11751521785).

Setup & credentials¶

Paid subscription. OpenAI API key stored in 1Password. Subscription poller at ~/.ecomonetize/scripts/subscription-pollers/ tracks cost usage.

Owner¶

tbd — council-review usage is cross-cutting; no single agent owns OpenAI specifically. cmo currently evaluates competitive intel tooling.

Notes¶

ChatGPT vs. Storytell AI comparison was a research topic per Jordan's memory
Subscription poller is a daily tracker, not a usage monitor
