AI4BCM Guidance, inside your own AI.

Install the AI4BCM Guidance tool into the AI your organisation already uses.

Ask it a normal question about your work and it will tell you what the guidelines say to do and what a person must approve.

Copy the command for the tool you use and paste it in. AI4BCM Guidance will install automatically. ChatGPT works differently: it has no command, so its steps are in the ChatGPT row below.

Claude Code

/plugin marketplace add AI4BCM/guidance
/plugin install ai4bcm-guidance@ai4bcm

Installs the guideline with it, so everything it points you at opens.

Codex, GitHub Copilot and similar

npx skills@latest add AI4BCM/guidance/skills

Installs the question routes on their own; they read the guideline online as needed.

ChatGPT

A workspace admin opens Workspace Settings › Marketplaces › + Add › Import marketplace and enters https://github.com/AI4BCM/guidance in the Source field. Pasting that link into a normal chat installs nothing. If ChatGPT asks you to upload a ZIP or build a plugin, that is a chat reply, not an installation confirmation.

1Add the file

If you don’t have admin rights and only want to paste AI4BCM Guidance as text, this is what you need to do. This will feed ChatGPT the text of the AI4BCM guidance. It does not install the plugin’s ten skills.

  1. Download the .md file. Download the .md
  2. Attach it to ChatGPT. Attach the file to a chat, or add it to a project’s files.
  3. Ask it to use the file. For example:
    Use the attached AI4BCM Guidance file to answer. How can I use AI for crisis exercises?

2Install the plugin

This installs the AI4BCM guidance and its ten skills. First, an administrator imports it, and then each member installs it.

My admin already added it: go to the member steps It is not in my workspace: ask your admin

Administrator (once per workspace)

  1. Open Workspace Settings in the workspace you want it in.
  2. Check GitHub access if needed. In the settings sidebar, under Plugins, open Workspace connections. The GitHub account you import with must be able to read the repository. Finish any sign-in ChatGPT asks for, then go on.
  3. Click Marketplaces, in the same sidebar under Plugins. It is a separate entry from the Plugins page.
    The ChatGPT settings sidebar. Under the heading Plugins are four entries: Plugins, Workspace connections, Skills and Marketplaces. Marketplaces is highlighted.
  4. Click + Add, top right, then Import marketplace.
    The Marketplaces page with a black + Add button at the top right, above the list of marketplaces.
    The + Add button on the Marketplaces page. The list shows ai4bcm/guidance once it has been imported. Click to enlarge.
  5. Enter the repository link in Source. Leave Path and Branch, tag, or commit empty. Then click Import marketplace.
    https://github.com/AI4BCM/guidance
    The Import marketplace from GitHub dialog. The Source field holds https://github.com/AI4BCM/guidance. The Path and Branch, tag, or commit fields are empty. The black Import marketplace button is at the bottom right.
    Source filled in, Path and Branch left empty. Click to enlarge.
  6. Open ai4bcm/guidance from the Marketplaces list. In the Plugins list at the bottom, the ai4bcm-guidance row should say Imported. The marketplace may still say Syncing… and Importing… above it. That is fine while the plugin row says Imported.
    The ai4bcm/guidance marketplace page. At the bottom, the plugin row ai4bcm-guidance has a green Imported status. Above it the page still says Syncing and Importing.
    The ai4bcm-guidance row with its green Imported status. Click to enlarge.
  7. Click the ai4bcm-guidance row, not the Settings button at the top right of the marketplace. Check it says Enabled, then choose who installs it:
    • Available: members install it themselves.
    • Installed: it is installed by default for everyone in the workspace.
    The AI4BCM guidance plugin page. A green Enabled button is at the top right, and Open in directory is above it. Under Availability, a switch for Workspace default offers Available and Installed.
    Enabled, and the Available / Installed choice. Click to enlarge.
  8. Click Open in directory, top right, to see the page your members will see.

Member (each person)

  1. Switch to the right workspace, the one where your admin added it.
  2. Open Plugins (the plugin directory, not Workspace Settings). Find AI4BCM guidance, open it and click Install plugin.
    The AI4BCM guidance page in the plugin directory, listing ten skills. A black Install plugin button is at the top right.
    The Install plugin button, top right. Click to enlarge.
  3. Click Try in chat. A message “AI4BCM guidance plugin installed” appears; its Try now button does the same.
    The same page after installing. A message at the top says AI4BCM guidance plugin installed with a Try now button. The Install plugin button has become Manage and Try in chat.
    Installed. Try in chat is at the top right. Click to enlarge.
  4. Check the plugin is selected, then ask a question. It shows as @ AI4BCM guidance at the start of your message. If ChatGPT offers an @ list, pick it from there. A first question to try: “How can I use AI for crisis exercises?”
    A ChatGPT chat. The message starts with a blue @ AI4BCM guidance mention and asks about AI for crisis exercises; the original question has a typing slip. The answer names Stage 6, Validate, and points to units/prompts/exercise.md.
    A real first question and the start of the answer. Your answer may be worded differently. Click to enlarge.

Screens were taken in ChatGPT with release 2026.11.1; ChatGPT may change them.

If something looks wrong

  • ChatGPT asks for a ZIP or offers to build a plugin. That is a chat reply, not an installation confirmation. Follow the Plugins steps above.
  • A warning such as “Could not check marketplace import status”. Open Marketplaces, click ai4bcm/guidance and look at the ai4bcm-guidance row. If it says Imported, carry on.
  • Syncing, Importing or greyed-out controls stay on screen even when the plugin works. If they are still there after an hour and a page reload, contact OpenAI Support. Do not delete the marketplace: deleting it removes the plugins imported from it.

Before you roll it out.

Does it work on my ChatGPT?

Yes, in two ways. Adding the .md file to a chat needs no installation. Installing the plugin needs a workspace administrator to import it, and OpenAI does not publish a list of plans, so ask your administrator. Without one, add the file or read the PDF. The steps are in the ChatGPT row above.

Is any data leaving my organisation?
Is it safe to use?

We cannot access or read any of your data. AI4BCM Guidance runs inside your own AI and has no server of ours behind it, so it cannot read or send your data anywhere. Your AI reads AI4BCM Guidance the same way as any other file you provide, and the terms and conditions you already have with that AI provider still apply.

What exactly do we install?

A folder of text files that anyone can read on GitHub. The Claude Code install brings 22 Python files. They never run on their own. Codex and Copilot get text files only. In each tool AI4BCM Guidance answers only when someone types /ask-ai4bcm.

What does it cost?

Nothing. It is free under the CC BY 4.0 licence.
