This is actually one of my biggest issues with ChatGPT, that it's not really possible to create some kind of reusable workflows. The best option is Custom GPTs, to create a specific chat bot for one task.

There are many UI projects for LLMs, like openwebui.com for example. But even with the OpenAI API as backend they don't provide as many features as ChatGPT (Web search, Python processing of data, charting, image generation).

I think one of the most promising approach would be some kind of user scripts for extending the official ChatGPT UI. (user scripts in the browser with some tool like Violentmonkey, FireMonkey, or anything similar to the good old Greasemonkey). I don't use it though, and I don't know if there are any good extensions for ChatGPT.

I looked into creating a simple Firefox extension for ChatGPT which would let me branch a conversation off into a new chat so as not to "pollute" or interfere with the existing chat.

I had success extracting the existing conversation and adding it to a new window, but gave up after trying to modify the ChatGPT UI (i.e. to format what I'd just pasted in so it'd look like the conversation left off where I branched). The UI just kept re-rendering/re-painting itself non-stop, overriding what I changed. I didn't try to push past that. I'm sure I could use JS or something else to massage the UI further, but it didn't seem like a non-trivial task. Maybe something to look into some weekend.
