Install Open Health Sync in Codex
What you need first
- Codex, installed.
- Docker, which
gives the
dockercommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_OHS_MCP_URL,YOUR_OHS_MCP_KEY.
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 open-health-sync --env OHS_MCP_URL=YOUR_OHS_MCP_URL --env OHS_MCP_KEY=YOUR_OHS_MCP_KEY -- docker run -i --rm -e OHS_MCP_URL -e OHS_MCP_KEY ghcr.io/soma-intelligence/open-health-sync:0.2.0 mcp - Replace
YOUR_OHS_MCP_URL,YOUR_OHS_MCP_KEYwith your own values. - Start Codex again and type
/mcp: the server is listed.

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