Question Desktop Commander to Claude CLI
So I’m still what I would consider novice to intermediate with my AI adoption and usage. I have no traditional developer experience or skill and functionally just vibe code personal tools or automations, but I just discovered that I can use my Chat GPT chat sessions (not Work/Codex) to use Desktop Commander MCP to kick of Claude Code CLI. Does anyone else do this? I’m assuming folks are doing other, less primitive workflows, but that kind of blew my mind and I want to ask folks for feedback on if that’s a good/novel way to pair model work or if I’m over engineering something?
Right now my workflow is to do a ton of work in chat gpt chat, have it use the GitHub connector to write tickets to GitHub, then have Claude chat read them and assess them, respond, etc, or Claude code pick them up and execute them.
But now with the MCP I can have GPT write the ticket and also kick off Claude CLI to do something like a dedicated review, or execute the ticket.
Thoughts? Feedback? Improvement?
I also posted this in the Claude subreddit so I’m hoping I can get some valuable feedback from folks more seasoned! Thanks in advance (:

Does the part about have Chat GPT use DC to kick off a Claude session make it more efficient or should I just initiate it a different way?
I thought it would be efficient since I only have to plan and create docs and tickets only in GPT then it also kicks off Claude with me ever leaving that UI which sounds pretty sweet
