Install Proton Workflow Connector in Codex
What you need first
- Codex, installed.
- uv, which
gives the
uvxcommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_PROTON_BRIDGE_USERNAME,YOUR_PROTON_BRIDGE_PASSWORD,YOUR_PROTON_BRIDGE_EMAIL.
Steps
- Run this in a terminal. It writes the server into
~/.codex/config.toml, which the Codex CLI, its IDE extension and the ChatGPT desktop app share.
codex mcp add proton-workflow-connector --env PROTON_BRIDGE_USERNAME=YOUR_PROTON_BRIDGE_USERNAME --env PROTON_BRIDGE_PASSWORD=YOUR_PROTON_BRIDGE_PASSWORD --env PROTON_BRIDGE_EMAIL=YOUR_PROTON_BRIDGE_EMAIL -- uvx proton-workflow-connector==1.3.0 - Replace
YOUR_PROTON_BRIDGE_USERNAME,YOUR_PROTON_BRIDGE_PASSWORD,YOUR_PROTON_BRIDGE_EMAILwith your own values. - Start Codex again and type
/mcp: the server is listed.
Check it worked
Ask Codex: List the tools of proton-workflow-connector.
If it does not start
- spawn uvx ENOENT
- uv is not on the PATH that Codex sees. Install it, or write the
full path of
uvxin the config. - The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
