Android ChatGPT app error after before tools/call

In addition to @LarisaHaster's great response, can you try a minimal static component resource on the same app/tool first?

No JS bundle, no external assets, no OAuth, no redirects, no custom domain logic, just a tiny inline/static widget and see whether Android reaches tools/call.

Given your logs (initialize, tools/list, resources/list, resources/read all 200), the failure likely happens during widget render/bootstrap inside the Android client before the tool invocation path.

Also useful to inspect:

  • exact resources/read payload + response headers
  • tool descriptor _meta (especially openai/outputTemplate, ui.resourceUri, widget accessibility flags)
  • CSP + widget domain config
  • Android logcat / WebView console errors
  • whether the widget depends on:
    • browser-only APIs
    • third-party cookies/storage
    • redirects
    • cross-origin assets
    • service workers
    • dynamic imports/module loading
    • mixed-content HTTP assets

If the minimal component works, it points more toward CSP, asset loading, Android WebView compatibility, auth/session handling, or frontend JS crashing before the tool call.

If even the minimal widget fails before tools/call, that’s much stronger evidence of an Android ChatGPT client/App SDK regression rather than your server/tool handler.

Feel free to open a support ticket to support@openai.com with request_IDs and any details that would be helpful as mentioned above.
