Install athena-owl in Codex

What you need first

  • Codex, installed.
  • Node.js, which gives the npx command the server starts with.

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 athena-owl -- npx -y athena-owl
  1. Start Codex again and type /mcp: the server is listed.

Check it worked

Ask Codex: List the tools of athena-owl.

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.
