Ask HN: What are some ChatGPT plugin ideas
I find myself with plugin development access and no single idea to start on.
Thought it would be a good idea to gather a few ideas for myself or others to work on. I'll add a few first: - Weather integrations. Questions such as "Where is a good place to travel to this weekend?". "What day this week should I go hiking". "Where is the cheapest place to fly to business class that has weather above 70 degrees and a beach" (if kayak plugin ever works) - Sports and fantasy data. "Who should I start next week?" - CI/CD integrations. Possibly ask about failures and why the failed. Why the test failed. Could it come up with a fix? What information about the user does the plugin get? Can you store authentication keys somehow? I want a plugin that just runs stuff in an EC2 instance. I'd also like a plugin that could connect to my email provider and read or send out emails based on my requests. I'd ask it stuff like "summarize all my unpaid bills". The plugin spec allows for user authentication--But it seems to be in process. > Due to current UI limitations, we are not allowing plugins with User authentication into the plugin store. We expect this to change in the near future. For now if you get development access you can run it on localhost and just make it available to yourself. So something early access could be a GitHub download and make your own copy for yourself kind of thing. ETA: I do like the idea of some email integration. Assuming one is fine with ChatGPT knowing your email contents. Email plugin to check the content grammatically, make it succint and modify the tone depending on who you are sending it to.
