## Introduction

Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With Alttext ai MCP integration, you can draft, triage, summarise emails, and much more, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer.

## TL;DR

### Why use Composio?
Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:
- CodeAct: A dedicated workbench that allows GPT to write its code to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
- Large tool responses: Handle them to minimise context rot.
- Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 1500+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

## Connect Alttext ai to Codex

### How to install Alttext ai MCP in Codex
### Run the setup command
Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex.

```bash
codex mcp add composio --url https://connect.composio.dev/mcp
```

## What is the Alttext ai MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The AltText.ai MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your AltText.ai account. It provides structured and secure access to your image library and account settings, so your agent can generate alt text, process images in bulk, scan pages for images, search your library, and manage image details on your behalf.
- Alt text generation: Have your agent submit an image to generate descriptive alt text for accessibility and SEO.
- Bulk image processing: Direct your agent to upload a CSV of image URLs and queue them for alt text generation.
- Web page image scanning: Let the agent scan a web page or HTML document and queue its images for alt text generation.
- Image library management: Instruct your agent to list or search images, retrieve their alt text and metadata, update image details, or remove images you no longer need.
- Account settings and usage: Have your agent check account usage and settings, then update details such as your account name or webhook URL.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ALTTEXT_AI_CREATE_BULK_IMAGES` | Bulk Create Images | Tool to bulk upload and process a CSV file of image URLs for alt text generation. Use when you need to process multiple images at once (up to 100,000 URLs). Invalid rows are returned in row_errors for debugging. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_CREATE_IMAGE` | Create Image | Tool to add an image and generate alt text. Supports both URL and base64-encoded file upload. Use when you need to generate alt text for images, with options for custom prompts, keywords, multiple languages, and ecommerce data. Rate limited to 4 calls per second. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_DELETE_IMAGE_BY_ASSET_ID` | Delete Image by Asset ID | Tool to delete an image from your library by its asset ID. Use when you need to remove a specific image permanently from your AltText.ai account. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_GET_ACCOUNT` | Get Account | Tool to retrieve account settings and usage information. Use when you need to check your AltText.ai account configuration and usage limits before generating alt text. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_GET_IMAGE_BY_ASSET_ID` | Get Image by Asset ID | Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific image using its asset ID. Use when you need to fetch alt text, metadata, or status of a previously processed image. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_GET_IMAGES` | Get Images | Tool to retrieve a paginated list of images in your library, including their alt text and metadata. Use when you need to browse or filter images programmatically after authentication. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_SCRAPE_PAGE` | Scrape Page for Images | Tool to scrape a web page or HTML document and queue all images for alt text generation. Images are processed asynchronously. Does not execute JavaScript. Use when you need to batch-process images from a website or HTML content. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_SEARCH_IMAGES` | Search Images | Search for images in your AltText.ai library by keywords. Searches through your previously processed images to find matches based on URLs, alt text content, and metadata. Useful for finding specific images in large libraries. Returns paginated results with alt text and metadata. Note: This searches your own image library, not a public image database. Images must be added via the Create Image endpoint before they can be searched. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_UPDATE_ACCOUNT` | Update Account | Tool to update account settings (e.g., webhook_url, name). Use after confirming current account details to modify settings. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_UPDATE_IMAGE_BY_ASSET_ID` | Update Image by Asset ID | Tool to update an image with new data including asset ID, alt text, and metadata. Use when you need to modify existing image information. Note: You cannot update the URL of an existing image. |

## Conclusion

### Conclusion
You've successfully integrated Alttext ai with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Alttext ai directly from your terminal, VS Code, or the Codex App using natural language commands.
Key benefits of this setup:
- Seamless integration across CLI, VS Code, and standalone app
- Natural language commands for Alttext ai operations
- Managed authentication through Composio
- Access to 20,000+ tools across 1500+ apps for cross-app workflows
- CodeAct workbench for complex tool chaining
Next steps:

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Alttext ai MCP?

With a standalone Alttext ai MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Alttext ai tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Alttext ai and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Codex?

Yes, you can. Codex fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Alttext ai tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Alttext ai while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Alttext ai scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Alttext ai data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
