Connecting Claude or ChatGPT

Reference archive: this page documents the original Yab browser. Features, platforms and release dates here do not describe the current Veb prototype. Veb release plans →

Veb has no model of its own: it works on the Claude or ChatGPT plan you already pay for.

Everything AI in Veb runs on your own Claude or ChatGPT plan. Veb gives it a browser: your tabs, your sites, signed in as you. There is no Veb account, and Veb adds nothing to what your plan costs.

Connect#

  1. Open Settings › AI (or choose your agent in the welcome).
  2. Tick Claude, ChatGPT or both, and press the button under them, such as Connect Claude. Veb sets up what’s missing first.
  3. Sign in to your plan in the tab Veb opens. ChatGPT opens its sign-in in your Mac’s default browser instead. Veb never sees your sign-in: the agent keeps it.

Claude needs a Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise plan. ChatGPT works on Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Edu, and Free and Go may too, with low limits.

What connecting puts on your Mac#

  • Claude Code or Codex, if they aren’t there yet: Anthropic’s and OpenAI’s own tools, which Veb runs for you on your plan.
  • The yab command, so you and your agents can use Veb from a terminal.
  • Veb’s skill and tools (an MCP server named yab-browser) in Claude Code’s and Codex’s own settings, so they use Veb when you ask them in their own app, too.

Settings › Developers shows where each went, puts a missing or older one right, and removes one at a time. Disconnect in Settings › AI › Agents takes back all of it, and only that.

Ask from Claude Code or Codex#

In a terminal or in their app, ask for anything on the web and name Veb’s skill:

use /yab-browser to open my GitHub notifications and tell me what needs me

In Codex the skill is $yab-browser. The agent opens tabs of its own in Veb, beside yours, and you can watch it work.
