Is there a plan to create browser client version?

[hbq969]

Describe the feature

The current version needs to rely on many nodejs server features, Whether to consider developing a browser client version？

v3 is the browser version. You can still use v3.5.1 if you want.

I've moved on from maintaining it because it was a pain to maintain, tended to be flaky, and the official API is coming soon.

Maintaining the puppeteer based version is a pain, I understand that. I want to add one argument for doing so however. With ChatGPT Plus it seems that the playground is faster and most of all requests from there are not billed. When using the API via Rest/APIKey, it is billed to the issuing account.

@jakobsa @hbq969 You can now use ChatGPTUnofficialProxyAPI which uses the a proxied version of the real ChatGPT API. Upgrade to https://github.com/transitive-bullshit/chatgpt-api/releases/tag/v4.5.0

I think this should solve your concerns regarding the previous browser-based version.

Thank you very much! Just tried it out. Worked on first trial. Also now having the conversation thread back in the playground. Which is great for debugging.
