use hyv in chatgpt

use this for

• you write in chatgpt on the web (chatgpt.com)
• you use the chatgpt desktop app with developer mode

steps

1. chatgpt.com → settings → apps → advanced → turn developer mode on
2. create app → name: hold your voice
3. server url: https://holdyourvoice.com/mcp · authentication: oauth → save and sign in
4. each new chat: + menu → developer mode → select hold your voice
5. paste the prompt below into the chat

copy this prompt

Paste into any chat in chatgpt after the steps above. On mcp hosts, tools must already be connected; on rules/skill hosts the agent should run the hyv cli.

details to know

• path a (recommended, paid hyv): remote oauth on the web — no local install
• developer mode requires plus, pro, business, enterprise, or education
• print full chatgpt steps anytime: hyv mcp --setup-chatgpt
• path b (free / offline scan): install hyv, then local stdio connector — see mac/windows steps below

limits and edge cases

• a chat prompt alone cannot create the connector — you must use settings
• the elevated risk warning in chatgpt is normal — not a hyv error
• if tools never fire, enable the app for this chat via + → developer mode
• if you only see connectors (no create app), use path b after installing hyv
