CLUSTER CHAT-CHATGPT-COMMANDS · 18 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-04

Desktop ChatGPT control apps

These products bring ChatGPT into the desktop environment, enabling chat windows, command execution, and dashboards for monitoring actions. The cluster's dated history is too thin to read a shape from -- it predates the index or its members are undated. Among the traction leaders, chat-on-steroids is most prominent with 3,462 stars, followed by meetron and codex-micro-waveshare with far fewer.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
