Install Coding Challenge Solutions in Codex

What you need first

  • Codex, installed.
  • Docker, which gives the docker 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 cc-solutions -- docker run -i --rm ghcr.io/nikhil-bhat/cc-solutions-mcp:1.0.4
  1. Start Codex again and type /mcp: the server is listed.

Check it worked

Ask Codex: List the tools of cc-solutions.

If it does not start

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon
Docker is not running. Start it, then restart Codex.
