Install ABAP Accelerator in Codex

What you need first

  • Codex, installed.
  • uv, which gives the uvx command the server starts with.
  • Your own values for YOUR_SAP_HOST,YOUR_SAP_INSTANCE_NUMBER,YOUR_SAP_CLIENT,YOUR_SAP_USERNAME,YOUR_SAP_PASSWORD.

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 abap-accelerator --env SAP_HOST=YOUR_SAP_HOST --env SAP_INSTANCE_NUMBER=YOUR_SAP_INSTANCE_NUMBER --env SAP_CLIENT=YOUR_SAP_CLIENT --env SAP_USERNAME=YOUR_SAP_USERNAME --env SAP_PASSWORD=YOUR_SAP_PASSWORD -- uvx abap-accelerator==1.0.1
  1. Replace YOUR_SAP_HOST,YOUR_SAP_INSTANCE_NUMBER,YOUR_SAP_CLIENT,YOUR_SAP_USERNAME,YOUR_SAP_PASSWORD with your own values.
  2. Start Codex again and type /mcp: the server is listed.

Check it worked

Ask Codex: List the tools of abap-accelerator.

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.
The server starts, but its tools fail
A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
