The migration supports up to **50 chats from the last 30 days** and converts files like instruction files (`AGENTS.md`) and settings (`config.toml`), though some elements—such as **slash commands**—merge into different mechanisms (e.g., *Skills*). Authentication, environment variables, and permissions require manual verification after import, as the tool does not guarantee full functionality or real-time sync for migrated items.\n\nTeams relying on long-term project memories or confidential data should audit the transfer carefully. The process involves **seven steps**, but the bulk of effort lies in post-migration checks, including validating **instruction files, project folders, and plugin permissions**. OpenAI’s new model, **GPT-6 Astra**, powers the destination environment, offering a **1.05M-token context window** and **128K-token output limit**. The article advises starting with the safest permission setting (*Ask for approval*) to avoid unintended actions during verification.","keyPoints":["ChatGPT’s import feature moves up to 50 Claude Code chats from the last 30 days, plus settings and projects, but not one-to-one","Authentication, environment variables, and permissions require manual recheck after migration—no full sync guaranteed","GPT-6 Astra handles the imported content with a 1.05M-token context window and 128K-token output limit"],"whyItMatters":"Teams switching from Claude Code must verify migrated settings and permissions manually, as OpenAI’s import tool lacks full compatibility or real-time sync. The move highlights gaps in cross-platform AI tool migration, forcing users to audit critical workflows post-transfer.","category":{"slug":"marketing","name":"Marketing & Small Business","url":"https://digestai.news/category/marketing"},"entities":{"companies":["OpenAI","Anthropic"],"models":["GPT-6 Astra","Claude Code"],"people":[]},"firstPublishedAt":"2026-09-28T00:06:00Z","updatedAt":"2026-09-28T00:06:00Z","sourceCount":1,"hasPrimarySource":false,"sources":[{"outlet":"note.com","title":"[Is that setting really working?] 8 things to check if you are moving from Claude Code to ChatGPT with GPT-6 Astra","url":"https://note.com/yuito_kuroyama/n/n77369b47cab5?hl=en","publishedAt":"2026-09-28T00:06:00Z","type":"press","primary":false,"lead":true}],"sourceNotes":null,"discussions":[],"thread":null,"cite":{"text":"Digest AI, \"ChatGPT adds Claude Code import with limits on chats and settings\", 28 September 2026, https://digestai.news/story/chatgpt-adds-claude-code-import-with-limits-on-chats-and-settings","publisher":"Digest AI","title":"ChatGPT adds Claude Code import with limits on chats and settings","datePublished":"2026-09-28T00:06:00Z","url":"https://digestai.news/story/chatgpt-adds-claude-code-import-with-limits-on-chats-and-settings"},"generatedBy":"Written by Digest AI's editorial model from the linked sources; the sources are the record.","license":"Headlines, digests and key points are written by Digest AI and may be quoted with a link to the story page.
