- OpenAI expanded ChatGPT plugins with interactive panels and file viewers, and added MCP Events support to enable plugin automations.
- OpenAI launched a Plugin Creator tool as part of the same plugin ecosystem expansion aimed at productivity use cases.
Why it matters: Interactive panels, file viewers, and a Plugin Creator lower the bar for third-party developers to build richer, automated experiences inside ChatGPT, while MCP Events signals OpenAI is wiring plugins into an event-driven automation layer rather than static add-ons.
