Install Rock's Apify Utility Actors in Bob Shell

What you need first

  • Bob Shell, installed.
  • Nothing else: the server runs on its publisher's machines and Bob Shell connects to it.
  • Your own value for YOUR_AUTHORIZATION.

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": {
    "rock-apify-tools": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=rock-ai-tools/pdf-to-text-chunks-rag-ready,rock-ai-tools/csv-cleaner-deduplicator,rock-ai-tools/bulk-link-checker,rock-ai-tools/sitemap-to-url-list,rock-ai-tools/bulk-email-syntax-mx-validator,rock-ai-tools/bulk-phone-number-format-validator,rock-ai-tools/eu-vat-validator",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "YOUR_AUTHORIZATION" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Replace YOUR_AUTHORIZATION with your own value.
  2. Save the file and restart Bob Shell.

Check it worked

Ask Bob Shell: List the tools of rock-apify-tools.

If it does not start

401 Unauthorized
The endpoint wants a sign-in or a key. Sign in when Bob Shell asks, or check the value in place of the placeholder.
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.
