Stack Overflow says ChatGPT plugin lifted agent signups

OpenAI said Stack Overflow for Agents was built by two engineers in a few weeks using Codex, and that its ChatGPT plugin helped drive up to 10x growth in agent creation. The account frames the plugin as a distribution channel for the product, though no additional operating data was provided in the source material. According to OpenAI’s post published on Fri, 16 Oct 2026, the product was shipped quickly with Codex, OpenAI’s coding tool, and then integrated with a ChatGPT plugin. The only quantified outcome supplied is that the plugin helped drive up to 10x growth in agent creation.
