Install Sezzlee SQL Server in Codex

What you need first

• Codex, installed.
• Node.js, which gives the npx command the server starts with.
• Your own values for YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_SERVER,YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_DATABASE,YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_USER,YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_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 mssql --env SEZZLEE_MSSQL_SERVER=YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_SERVER --env SEZZLEE_MSSQL_DATABASE=YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_DATABASE --env SEZZLEE_MSSQL_USER=YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_USER --env SEZZLEE_MSSQL_PASSWORD=YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_PASSWORD -- npx -y @sezzlee/[email protected]

2. Replace YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_SERVER,YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_DATABASE,YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_USER,YOUR_SEZZLEE_MSSQL_PASSWORD with your own values.
3. Start Codex again and type /mcp: the server is listed.

Check it worked

Ask Codex: List the tools of mssql.

If it does not start

spawn npx ENOENT

Node.js is not on the PATH that Codex sees. Install it, or write the full path of npx in the config.

The server starts, but its tools fail

A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
