Large Gram Functions
Previously, Gram Functions could only be around 700KiB zipped, which was adequate for building many tools but was severely limiting for many others. One example is ChatGPT Apps, which can be full-fledged React applications with images, CSS and JS assets embedded alongside an MCP server, all running in a Gram Function. Many such apps may not fit into this constrained size. Large Gram Functions addresses this limitation by allowing larger zip files to be deployed with the help of Tigris, an S3-compatible object store that integrates nicely with Fly.io where Gram Functions are deployed and run.
