Install Oe in Codex
What you need first
- Codex, installed.
- Node.js, which
gives the
npxcommand the server starts with. - Your own value for
YOUR_OE_MCP_CONFIG_PATH.
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 oe-mcp --env OE_MCP_CONFIG_PATH=YOUR_OE_MCP_CONFIG_PATH -- npx -y @openenthrium/[email protected] --stdio '${OE_MCP_CONFIG_PATH}' - Replace
YOUR_OE_MCP_CONFIG_PATHwith your own value. - Start Codex again and type
/mcp: the server is listed.
Check it worked
Ask Codex: List the tools of oe-mcp.
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.
