Skybridge
Build ChatGPT & MCP Apps. The Modern TypeScript Way.
The fullstack TypeScript framework for AI-embedded widgets.<br /> Type-safe. React-powered. Platform-agnostic.
<br /> <br />Documentation · Quick Start · Showcase
</div> <br />✨ Why Skybridge?
ChatGPT Apps and MCP Apps let you embed rich, interactive UIs directly in AI conversations. But the raw SDKs are low-level—no hooks, no type safety, no dev tools, and no HMR.
Skybridge fixes that.

|:--|:--|
| 👨💻 Full Dev Environment — HMR, debug traces, and local devtools. No more refresh loops. | ✅ End-to-End Type Safety — tRPC-style inference from server to widget. Autocomplete everywhere. |
| 🔄 Widget-to-Model Sync — Keep the model aware of UI state with data-llm. Dual surfaces, one source of truth. | ⚒️ React Query-style Hooks — isPending, isError, callbacks. State management you already know. |
| 🌐 Platform Agnostic — Write once, run anywhere. Works with ChatGPT (Apps SDK) and MCP-compatible clients. | 📦 Showcase Examples — Production-ready examples to learn from and build upon. |

Skybridge is a fullstack framework with unified server and client modules:
skybridge/server— Define tools and widgets with full type inference. Extends the MCP SDK.skybridge/web— React hooks that consume your server types. Works with Apps SDK (ChatGPT) and MCP Apps.- Dev Environment — Vite plugin with HMR, DevTools emulator, and optimized builds.
Server
import { McpServer } from "skybridge/server";
server.registerWidget("flights", {}, {
inputSchema: { destination: z.string() },
}, async ({ destination }) => {
const flights = await searchFlights(destination);
return { structuredContent: { flights } };
});
Widget
import { useToolInfo } from "skybridge/web";
function FlightsWidget() {
const { output } = useToolInfo();
return output.structuredContent.flights.map(flight =>
<FlightCard key={flight.id} flight={flight} />
);
}
