I want to copy the sequence of filters applied in one image to other image.

I cant remember either their values or the queue of the filters. I knwo how to use under history, and recently used filters. 

I want the easiest way to apply it. 

Chatgpt suggested to save the image as xcf, copy visible from edit, and then paste as new layer. Dont work. It copy the image as whole not only the filter that i have applied to this image. 

How i can copy a batch of filters applied to an image as edits to another image?

Come on... give us a clue... Are you using Gimp 2.10 or Gimp 3.0 ?

Just goes to show what a load of rubbish Chatgpt gives as advice. I suppose it means that with two images of the same thing but with different properties...brightness - colours ... you can make a cubic look-up table (clut) and apply that to another image. You can do that with the gmic plugin.

If you do not know which filters and the values for those filters, then you are sunk. Be more careful next time and make notes.

For the next time:
If using Gimp 2.10 it is possible to write a small script to apply filters and plugins - even some GEGL filters.

For Gimp 3.0 there is the Batcher plugin that will work on a single image or (as the name implies) apply effects to several saved images.  Looks like this with three filters applied.

Many Gimp Filters have 'Presets' that default to 'last used'. You can also make your own presets and apply them again. Then you would only need to remember the sequence of filters used. You could also record this sequence with a pencil and notepad. Huh

Applying filters like this is one of the original ideas behind Gimp scripts written in Scheme. Idea
