If you want to work with the Meta-Primer agent directly, the easiest route is through the OpenAI Library on the web. All you need is a standard OpenAI account. The reason we point people there is simple: only the browser-based interface supports the full interactive workflow the agent relies on \u2014 long-form reasoning, multi-step sessions, and the richer UI components that keep the analysis coherent. API access and multi-client apps are great for lightweight or automated tasks, but they can\u2019t yet deliver the depth, structure, or continuity required for the full experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta Primer Explorer Agent on OpenAI<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

When you access the agent through the OpenAI Library, you\u2019ll also need a session key. This key connects your workspace to the correct configuration and keeps your interactions aligned with the version of the agent you\u2019re meant to use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keys are unique and they are time limited, provided by the Project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a simple one-time step: enter the key when prompted, and the system locks everything in. Without it, the agent will load in its default mode, which won\u2019t include the specialised tools, behaviours, or settings you expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n Welcome to XPlain<\/title>\n <style>\n body {\n font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Arial, sans-serif;\n max-width: 800px;\n margin: 0 auto;\n padding: 40px 20px;\n background: linear-gradient(135deg, #667eea 0%, #764ba2 100%);\n min-height: 100vh;\n }\n \n .container {\n background: white;\n border-radius: 12px;\n padding: 40px;\n box-shadow: 0 8px 32px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);\n }\n \n h1 {\n color: #2c3e50;\n margin-top: 0;\n font-size: 32px;\n margin-bottom: 10px;\n }\n \n .tagline {\n color: #7f8c8d;\n font-size: 18px;\n margin-bottom: 30px;\n font-style: italic;\n }\n \n .section {\n margin-bottom: 30px;\n }\n \n h2 {\n color: #667eea;\n font-size: 20px;\n margin-bottom: 15px;\n display: flex;\n align-items: center;\n }\n \n h2::before {\n content: \"\u25b8\";\n margin-right: 10px;\n color: #764ba2;\n }\n \n p {\n color: #34495e;\n line-height: 1.6;\n margin-bottom: 15px;\n }\n \n .important-box {\n background: #fff3cd;\n border-left: 4px solid #ffc107;\n padding: 15px 20px;\n border-radius: 4px;\n margin: 20px 0;\n }\n \n .important-box h3 {\n color: #856404;\n margin-top: 0;\n font-size: 16px;\n margin-bottom: 10px;\n }\n \n .important-box p {\n color: #856404;\n margin-bottom: 0;\n }\n \n .action-box {\n background: #d1ecf1;\n border-left: 4px solid #17a2b8;\n padding: 15px 20px;\n border-radius: 4px;\n margin: 20px 0;\n }\n \n .action-box h3 {\n color: #0c5460;\n margin-top: 0;\n font-size: 16px;\n margin-bottom: 10px;\n }\n \n .action-box ul {\n color: #0c5460;\n margin: 10px 0;\n padding-left: 20px;\n }\n \n .action-box li {\n margin-bottom: 8px;\n }\n \n .tips-list {\n background: #f8f9fa;\n padding: 20px;\n border-radius: 8px;\n margin-top: 20px;\n }\n \n .tips-list ul {\n margin: 0;\n padding-left: 20px;\n }\n \n .tips-list li {\n color: #495057;\n margin-bottom: 10px;\n line-height: 1.6;\n }\n \n .footer {\n margin-top: 40px;\n padding-top: 20px;\n border-top: 2px solid #e0e0e0;\n text-align: center;\n color: #7f8c8d;\n font-size: 14px;\n }\n \n code {\n background: #f4f4f4;\n padding: 2px 6px;\n border-radius: 3px;\n font-family: 'Courier New', monospace;\n color: #e83e8c;\n }\n \n @media (max-width: 600px) {\n body {\n padding: 20px 10px;\n }\n \n .container {\n padding: 20px;\n }\n \n h1 {\n font-size: 24px;\n }\n }\n <\/style>\n<\/head>\n<body>\n <div class=\"container\">\n <h1>\ud83d\udc4b Welcome to XPlain<\/h1>\n <p class=\"tagline\">Your meta-reasoning framework for structured AI reasoning<\/p>\n \n <div class=\"section\">\n <h2>What is XPlain?<\/h2>\n <p>XPlain is a meta-primer framework that provides explicit reasoning architectures for AI systems.
