Install Telegraph in Codex
What you need first
- Codex, installed.
- Node.js, which
gives the
npxcommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_TELEGRAPH_NODE_URL,YOUR_TELEGRAPH_ENGINE_URL,YOUR_TELEGRAPH_DAEMON_URL.
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 telegraph --env TELEGRAPH_NODE_URL=YOUR_TELEGRAPH_NODE_URL --env TELEGRAPH_ENGINE_URL=YOUR_TELEGRAPH_ENGINE_URL --env TELEGRAPH_DAEMON_URL=YOUR_TELEGRAPH_DAEMON_URL -- npx -y [email protected] - Replace
YOUR_TELEGRAPH_NODE_URL,YOUR_TELEGRAPH_ENGINE_URL,YOUR_TELEGRAPH_DAEMON_URLwith your own values. - Start Codex again and type
/mcp: the server is listed.
Check it worked
Ask Codex: List the tools of telegraph.
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
npxin the config. - The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
