Sign in to Golden. Choose Create as a plugin. Install it.

Do not search the plugin list. Older ChatGPT: Settings → Apps → Create.

Can't find Add custom MCP server? Your ChatGPT plan or team may not allow it.

02

Run Golden on your computer

Choose your computer. Copy the command into PowerShell or Terminal, not ChatGPT.

Windows PowerShell

Press Win. Type PowerShell and open it. Do not choose Run as administrator.

Paste with Ctrl + V. Press Enter.

Paste with ⌘ + V. Press Return.

Linux Terminal

Paste with Ctrl + Shift + V. Press Enter.

Use Golden only on computers you have permission to access. Do not send passwords in ChatGPT.

03

Sign in

Golden tries to open a browser. Sign in with the same Golden account you used in step 1.

No browser on Windows or Mac? Copy the link shown in PowerShell or Terminal. Open it in any browser.

Windows / Mac: keep PowerShell or Terminal open while using Golden.
