Before You Start: Important ChatGPT Quirks
ChatGPT has some limitations:
You must enable Developer Mode FIRST (required for connectors)
You must select Intangle from the + button at the start of EVERY chat
You must approve tools in EVERY new chat (it doesn't persist)
These are ChatGPT limitations, not Intangle. If you want a smoother experience, consider [Claude Desktop] instead.
Why Connect ChatGPT?
Works on desktop and mobile - Access Intangle from your phone
No API key needed - OAuth authentication
Requires manual selection each chat
3 minute setup
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Enable Developer Mode (Required)
This is required - unfortunately you cannot add connectors to ChatGPT right now without Developer Mode enabled, hopefully this will change soon.
Quick:
Press
Cmd + .OrWindows + .to enable developer mode
Slow:
Open ChatGPT (Web app only https://chatgpt.com)
Go to Settings -> Connectors & Apps -> Advanced (at the bottom)
Find and enable "Developer Mode"
Step 2: Add Intangle Connector
Still in Settings, select "Add Connector"
When prompted, you only need to enter the name and URL:
Name: Intangle
Description: Intelligent memory system (optional but recommended)
Step 3: Authorize in Browser
You'll be redirected to your browser (or in-app browser on mobile)
You'll see the Intangle authorization page
Click "Allow" to give ChatGPT (controlled) access to your Intangle memory
Return to ChatGPT
Step 4: Connection Complete!
The connector is now added. But remember: you must manually select it in each new chat (see next section).
How to Use It in Each Chat
At the start of EVERY new chat:
Click the + button (next to the message input)
Select Sources -> Intangle from the list
ChatGPT will ask you to approve the tools - click "Approve"
Now you can use Intangle in this chat
Note: Yes, you have to do this every time. This is a ChatGPT limitation (for now).
Example Usage
Once you've selected Intangle in a chat, talk naturally:
Saving information:
"Remember that I prefer Vue over React"
"Save to my Personal space: My favorite coffee shop is Blue Bottle"
"Create a task to research new database options"
Searching your memory:
"What do I have saved in Intangle about databases?"
"Search my work space for meeting notes"
"Show me my pending tasks"
Viewing your spaces:
"What Intangle spaces do I have?"
"List my topics in the Learning space"
Verify Your Connection
After selecting Intangle in a new chat, ask:
> "Can you list my Intangle spaces?"
If ChatGPT responds with your space names, you're connected!
Troubleshooting
I don't see Developer Mode in Settings
Developer Mode is only enabled in the web app and only available on:
- ChatGPT Plus, Team, or Enterprise accounts
- Some recent versions of the ChatGPT app
Make sure you're using the latest version and have a paid account.
ChatGPT says it doesn't have access to Intangle
Did you remember to:
1. Enable Developer Mode?
2. Select Intangle from the + button in this specific chat?
3. Approve the tools when prompted?
You must do all three for each new chat.
The + button doesn't show Intangle
Go back to Settings and verify the connector is added
Try removing and re-adding the connector
Make sure you completed the OAuth authorization
Still stuck?
