Install Temporal Continuity in mcp-client-cli

What you need first

  • mcp-client-cli, installed.
  • Node.js, which gives the npx command the server starts with.
  • Your own values for YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_API_KEY,YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_BASE_URL,YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_ORGANIZATION_ID,YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_PROJECT_ID,YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_ENVIRONMENT_ID.

Steps

  1. Open ~/.codex/config.toml, or create it. The Codex CLI, its IDE extension and the ChatGPT desktop app share this file.
  2. Add this table at the end of the file.
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "temporal-continuity": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "[email protected]"],
      "env": { "TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_API_KEY": "YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_API_KEY", "TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_BASE_URL": "YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_BASE_URL", "TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_ORGANIZATION_ID": "YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_ORGANIZATION_ID", "TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_PROJECT_ID": "YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_PROJECT_ID", "TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_ENVIRONMENT_ID": "YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_ENVIRONMENT_ID" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Replace YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_API_KEY,YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_BASE_URL,YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_ORGANIZATION_ID,YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_PROJECT_ID,YOUR_TEMPORAL_CONTINUITY_ENVIRONMENT_ID with your own values.
  2. Save the file and restart mcp-client-cli.

Check it worked

Ask mcp-client-cli: List the tools of temporal-continuity.

If it does not start

spawn npx ENOENT
Node.js is not on the PATH that mcp-client-cli sees. Install it, or write the full path of npx in the config.
The server starts, but its tools fail
A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
Nothing changes after a restart
The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
