Example prompts

  • “/chatgpt-import”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Vellum personal assistants

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Tell the user how to export. They need to go to ChatGPT Settings > Data controls > Export data. ChatGPT will email them a ZIP file.
  2. Ask the user to upload the ZIP file. Use whatever file upload tools or skills are available to receive the ZIP.
  3. Run the import. Once you have the ZIP file path, run

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 33cc983. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (TypeScript), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • bun

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Vellum personal assistants

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Chatgpt Import loads about 424 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 17 tokens; SKILL.md has 191 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~17
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~424

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Import ChatGPT conversation history into Vellum so users can keep their conversation context and memory when switching from ChatGPT.

How to guide the user

When a user wants to import their ChatGPT conversations:

  1. Tell the user how to export. They need to go to ChatGPT Settings > Data controls > Export data. ChatGPT will email them a ZIP file.
  2. Ask the user to upload the ZIP file. Use whatever file upload tools or skills are available to receive the ZIP.
  3. Run the import. Once you have the ZIP file path, run:
bash
bun run scripts/parse-export.ts --file "$ZIP_PATH" | assistant conversations import --json

The parse-export.ts script parses the ChatGPT ZIP and converts it to the standard import format. The assistant conversations import command reads the JSON from stdin and creates the conversations.

The command returns JSON:

json
{ "ok": true, "imported": 12, "skipped": 0, "messages": 347 }

Report the results — how many conversations and messages were imported, and any skipped duplicates.

Notes

  • Only ZIP files are accepted (the full export archive from ChatGPT).
  • Conversations are deduplicated — re-importing the same file will skip already-imported conversations.
  • Only user and assistant messages are imported (system prompts and tool calls are filtered out).
  • Original timestamps from ChatGPT are preserved.
  • Imported conversations are automatically indexed for memory search.
