That would be akin to giving each of the 'plugins' your GPT API key and pay the usage bill directly to OpenAI. The plugin developers would still want $$$ for the app even if the GPT usage was excluded though.

Wouldn't it be a one-time purchase then? "Buy my prompt for $10 that enables you to search your codebase"

And we're back to Prompt Engineers :)

I think an IDE plugin or standalone app takes slightly more work than writing a prompt, but sure

Yes, prompt engineering is the future.
