poll-the-people-customgpt-for-claude-code

customgpt-ai-rag

A Claude Code plugin that gives you semantic search over your entire project using CustomGPT.ai. Upload your codebase once, then ask questions across all files instantly.

No dependencies. Just curl.

What is CustomGPT.ai?

CustomGPT.ai is a RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) platform. It takes your files, chunks and embeds them, and lets you query across everything with AI-generated answers and source citations. This plugin connects it to Claude Code so you can search large projects without hitting context limits.

Install

In Claude Code, run:

/plugin marketplace add Poll-The-People/customgpt-for-claude-code
/plugin install customgpt-ai-rag@poll-the-people-customgpt-for-claude-code
/reload-plugins

Setup

1. Get a CustomGPT.ai API key (sign up at app.customgpt.ai if you don't have an account)
2. Run /create-agent — the plugin will ask for your key and save it

That's it. The plugin uploads your files and you're ready to search.

Usage

/create-agent          → connect your project to a new agent
/ask-agent [question]  → search across your codebase

Keeping files in sync

/update-agent          → sync changed + new files (fast, cheap)
/rebuild-agent         → wipe and re-upload everything (uses quota)

Managing your agent

/check-status          → see if files are done processing
/add-files [path]      → add specific files or folders
/list-files            → see all documents in the knowledge base
/delete-agent          → permanently delete the agent

API Key

The plugin checks these locations in order:

1. $CUSTOMGPT_API_KEY env var
2. .env file (walks up from current dir)
3. ~/.claude/customgpt-config.json

If no key is found, the plugin prompts you and saves it automatically.

Supported Files

CustomGPT.ai supports 1,400+ file types — code, docs, images, PDFs, spreadsheets, and more. If a file type isn't supported, the API will tell you.

Auto-excluded: .git/ node_modules/ dist/ build/ .env and other common junk directories.

Privacy & Billing

Files are uploaded to CustomGPT.ai for processing. Uses your existing subscription quota. API key stored locally at ~/.claude/customgpt-config.json.
