Install ESG MCP Servers in Codex
What you need first
- Codex, installed.
- uv, which
gives the
uvxcommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY,YOUR_POSTGRES_DSN,YOUR_MONGODB_URI.
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 esg-mcp-servers --env ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=YOUR_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY --env POSTGRES_DSN=YOUR_POSTGRES_DSN --env MONGODB_URI=YOUR_MONGODB_URI -- uvx esg-mcp-servers==0.1.2 - Replace
YOUR_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY,YOUR_POSTGRES_DSN,YOUR_MONGODB_URIwith your own values. - Start Codex again and type
/mcp: the server is listed.
Check it worked
Ask Codex: List the tools of esg-mcp-servers.
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.
