Install vme-mcp-cli in Codex

What you need first

  • Codex, installed.
  • uv, which gives the uvx command the server starts with.

Steps

  1. 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 vme-fastmcp-server-v2 -- uvx vme-mcp-cli
  1. Start Codex again and type /mcp: the server is listed.

Check it worked

Ask Codex: List the tools of vme-fastmcp-server-v2.

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 uvx in the config.
