I’ve been trying to find the best practice to connect a person’s existing ChatGPT/Codex / Claude accounts so they can be used in an app for the agent in the app.

Any advice? Everything seems clunky, even the best MCP efforts

MCP is the answer but it's only really worth it if you product is reasonably complex e.g. n8n has a community MCP fully for this reason.

best approach is to create an webapp that uses WebMCP and then use ChatGPT Desktop. you open the app using it and it and it can use all the tools. Then you implement navigation in the tools and you will see ChatGPT using your app pairing with you.
