Install Web & Developer Data Tools in Codex
What you need first
- Codex, installed.
- Nothing else: the server runs on its publisher's machines and Codex connects to it.
Steps
- 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 web-and-dev-tools --url 'https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=highbrow_fame/pdf-text-extractor,highbrow_fame/domain-whois-dns-ssl,highbrow_fame/website-tech-stack,highbrow_fame/sitemap-url-extractor,highbrow_fame/domain-authority-rank,highbrow_fame/rss-feed-reader,highbrow_fame/openstreetmap-places,highbrow_fame/github-trending-repos,highbrow_fame/weather-api,highbrow_fame/github-repo-api'- Start Codex again and type
/mcp: the server is listed.
Check it worked
Ask Codex: List the tools of web-and-dev-tools.
If it does not start
- 401 Unauthorized
- The endpoint wants a sign-in or a key. Sign in when Codex asks.
