OpenAI Add MCP cloud hosting to make it possible to turn it into a ChatGPT plugin once finished
Beating AI news flash:OpenAI add ChatGPT Sites hosting MCP Server Previously, when writing a MCP yourself and wanting cloud-based ChatGPT to call it, you usually had to find a server and deploy it yourself. Now you can run the MCP on Sites, then turn it into a ChatGPT plugin that can be used on the Web, mobile, and desktop after installation.OpenAI’s Max Stoiber demonstrated completing the entire process with a single sentence. He asked Sites to “make a to-do list that can be used in ChatGPT,” and the system created MCP Server, deployed it to Sites, then generated the plugin and installed it in ChatGPT.
This mainly solves the deployment problem for locally run MCP. If the MCP runs only on the user’s own computer, cloud-based ChatGPT cannot access it after the computer is shut down. With Sites hosting it, the MCP can keep running in the cloud without developers having to maintain their own servers.

AI-assisted interpretation
The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
MCP Server This can be understood as a service that lets ChatGPT call external functionality. The material states that developers can now deploy it on Sites and further generate a ChatGPT plugin, without having to find and maintain their own server for deployment.
Why it matters to readers
If the functionality described in the material is available,MCP developers would need fewer steps to deploy services and let ChatGPT on different devices call them.
Beginners may no longer need to learn to build their own server first to try making tools such as to-do lists that can be used in ChatGPT; however, the specific availability conditions have not been confirmed.
Risks and unknowns
The material does not include OpenAI an official announcement, product documentation, or an original demonstration link, so it cannot be confirmed whether the functionality has been formally released.
The original text does not specify whether the functionality is available to all users or whether regional, account, or plan restrictions apply.
The original text does not specify hosting fees, permission management, security isolation, or operational stability.
