Import from Other Agents in ChatGPT and Codex

ChatGPT and Codex can now pull your setup, projects, and recent chats over from Claude Code, Claude Cowork, or Cursor.

Transfers instruction files (AGENTS.md), config files (settings.json, config.toml), skills, plugins, project folders, project memories, MCP server configurations, hooks, slash commands, and subagents
The desktop app imports from Claude Code, Claude Cowork, and Cursor. The Codex CLI imports from Claude Code and Cursor
In the desktop app you go to Settings then Import. In the CLI you run /import during a local session
The CLI pulls up to 50 chats from the last 30 days
Automatic updates can be turned on in desktop settings so imported work stays in sync with the original agent
Importing leaves your existing agent setup unchanged. /import is unavailable during a running task, in a remote session, or when connected to a local app-server daemon

you are trialing Codex alongside a tool you already use and don't want to hand-copy your setup to compare them fairly
