Install Nutrient Document Engine MCP Server in Codex
What you need first
- Codex, installed.
- Node.js, which
gives the
npxcommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_DOCUMENT_ENGINE_BASE_URL,YOUR_DOCUMENT_ENGINE_API_AUTH_TOKEN.
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 nutrient-document-engine-mcp-server --env DOCUMENT_ENGINE_BASE_URL=YOUR_DOCUMENT_ENGINE_BASE_URL --env DOCUMENT_ENGINE_API_AUTH_TOKEN=YOUR_DOCUMENT_ENGINE_API_AUTH_TOKEN -- npx -y @nutrient-sdk/[email protected] - Replace
YOUR_DOCUMENT_ENGINE_BASE_URL,YOUR_DOCUMENT_ENGINE_API_AUTH_TOKENwith your own values. - Start Codex again and type
/mcp: the server is listed.
Check it worked
Ask Codex: List the tools of nutrient-document-engine-mcp-server.
If it does not start
- spawn npx ENOENT
- Node.js is not on the PATH that Codex sees. Install it, or write the
full path of
npxin the config. - The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
