**Type:** Announcement

## Summary

ClickHouse is a launch partner for the Data agent in ChatGPT Work, with a plugin that connects ClickHouse Cloud to natural-language questions, reports, and interactive dashboards. The listing combines a fully managed ClickHouse Remote MCP server with open-source ClickHouse Agent Skills, and OAuth scopes access to the organizations and services visible to the connected user without requiring an API key. The MCP server exposes 13 read-only tools for metadata, SELECT queries, and service, backup, ClickPipes, and billing information, while the skills guide SQL and code around schema design, optimization, and ingestion. ChatGPT Work can use query results to build branded dashboards, with fresh answers coming from the ClickHouse Cloud service; availability depends on ChatGPT plan and workspace settings.

## Context

On September 10, 2026, OpenAI introduced the Data agent in ChatGPT Work with agentic dashboards, expanded administration controls, and improved data connections. ClickHouse is included as one of its launch data connections, with availability dependent on ChatGPT plan and workspace settings.

## Approach / What changed

The ClickHouse plugin packages a managed Remote MCP server and open-source ClickHouse Agent Skills in a shared ChatGPT Work and Codex listing. Users connect ClickHouse Cloud through OAuth, after which the agent can inspect schemas, run read-only SELECT queries, use ClickHouse guidance for SQL and code, and turn results into interactive dashboards.

## Takeaways

- All 13 Remote MCP tools carry readOnlyHint: true, preventing the plugin from modifying data or changing a ClickHouse service's configuration.
- ClickHouse Agent Skills are Apache 2.0-licensed and cover schema design, query optimization, and data ingestion; in Codex they also guide generated code.
- Follow-up prompts reuse conversation context, so a request to break down an earlier result triggers a second query in the same conversation.
