Frequently Asked Questions

What is OpenResponses?

OpenResponses is a native SwiftUI developer client for the OpenAI Responses API on iPhone, iPad, and macOS. It exposes direct request controls, SSE event inspection, reasoning traces, tool execution, browser automation approvals, and MCP configuration.

What models does OpenResponses support?

OpenResponses centers on the models and tool paths available to your OpenAI account, including GPT-5, GPT-4.1, compatible reasoning models, and the specialized computer-use paths exposed by the app. The model list is fetched live from OpenAI instead of being frozen in the client.

What is MCP integration?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets OpenResponses connect to remote MCP servers and certain hosted connectors, depending on your model, tool compatibility, and configured authentication. Approval workflows stay visible so tool calls are not hidden behind a wrapper service.

What is the computer use feature?

Computer use is the app's browser automation harness for supported model and tool paths. It can navigate sites, click, type, scroll, and capture screenshots, but every step stays behind visible approval and audit controls.

Troubleshooting Checklist

API Keys & Connectivity

Ensure that your OpenAI API key is active, valid, and funded. If you get connection errors, confirm that api.openai.com is not blocked by your local network, firewall, or VPN configuration.

Computer Use Setup

To run browser automation, ensure your computer-use bridge server is running on the same local network. The app must be granted local network permissions in iOS Settings.

MCP Server Configuration

Verify that your MCP configuration is correct. Use the developer debug logs inside the app to inspect payload request logs and error states.
