In plain English

GuJumpgate is a Chrome browser extension, written mostly in Chinese, that tries to fully automate the process of signing up for a free ChatGPT account and then upgrading it to the paid Plus tier. The README presents it as an experiment in hands-free registration. The project is a modified and ported fork of an earlier open source project called FlowPilot, with parts of its history shared with a project called StepFlow-Duck. The README lists the steps the extension can drive on its own. It can register a free account by walking through the sign-up flow, then run the full PayPal activation for Plus, which includes jumping to a Stripe checkout link, filling in the Stripe form, jumping to PayPal, filling in the PayPal form, and finishing the purchase. It can also create email aliases on Hotmail and Outlook, manage a pool of PayPal account numbers, and handle the OAuth callback that returns to a local helper or to other panels. If a person wants to skip OAuth, the extension can produce a JSON file that contains only an access token and no refresh token, which the README recommends because of strict OAuth controls that now ask for phone binding. The README also lists what a user needs to bring before running it. There is a US phone number with API access that can receive PayPal verification codes, one or more Outlook mailboxes that support the IMAP and Graph protocols or a self-built Cloudflare temporary mail setup, and a clean US proxy that is suitable for PayPal sign-ups. The project notes that self-built mailboxes need an edu prefix in the domain to qualify for trial access, and that cleaner proxies trigger fewer captchas. Installation is manual. The user downloads a release, unpacks it, opens the Chrome extensions page, turns on developer mode, loads the unpacked folder, and grants permission to run in incognito mode. There are then steps for proxy configuration, running a local helper script on Windows or macOS, and choosing the export format inside the extension. The recommended export type is called SESSION JSON, which is valid for about ten days. The README ends with a note that users should follow the terms of service of any target platform and the laws of their own region, and that the project is MIT licensed downstream from FlowPilot.
