Install FreeStyle Libre (LibreLinkUp) in Codex

What you need first

  • Codex, installed.
  • uv, which gives the uvx command the server starts with.
  • Your own values for YOUR_LIBRELINKUP_EMAIL,YOUR_LIBRELINKUP_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 freestyle-libre-mcp --env LIBRELINKUP_EMAIL=YOUR_LIBRELINKUP_EMAIL --env LIBRELINKUP_PASSWORD=YOUR_LIBRELINKUP_PASSWORD -- uvx freestyle-libre-mcp==0.1.1
  1. Replace YOUR_LIBRELINKUP_EMAIL,YOUR_LIBRELINKUP_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 freestyle-libre-mcp.

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.
