How to integrate Anonyflow MCP with Codex

Connect Codex to Anonyflow MCP. Anonymize user email addresses before storage, deanonymize a list of encrypted ids, and more using natural language, with authentication handled for you.

Api Key

Anonyflow is a service for encryption-based data anonymization and secure data sharing. It helps organizations meet GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA data privacy compliance requirements.

Introduction

Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With the Anonyflow MCP integration, Codex can anonymize sensitive values, anonymize whole data packets, and deanonymize data for authorized use, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer.

For exact tool slugs and parameter tables, see the tool catalog in the Composio docs.

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 1700+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

How to install Anonyflow MCP in Codex

Run the setup command

Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex.

Terminal

It will initiate the authentication in a browser window, authorize Codex to access your Composio account.

Composio authentication page

(Optional) Authenticate with OAuth

To authenticate manually, run the login command to open a browser window and authorize Codex to access your Composio account.

bash
codex mcp login composio

Verify the connection

Run codex mcp list to confirm Composio appears as a registered MCP server.

bash
codex mcp list

Codex App

Codex App follows the same approach as VS Code.

  1. Click ⚙️ on the bottom left → MCP Servers → + Add servers → Streamable HTTP:
  2. Fill the header and Key fields with { "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }.
  3. The Key is the Composio API key, that you can find on dashboard.composio.dev
  4. Click on Authenticate and authorize Codex to your Composio account and you're all set.
Codex App MCP setup
  1. Restart and verify if it's there in .codex/config.toml
bash
[mcp_servers.composio]
url = "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
http_headers = { "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }

Try it

Ask Codex for a Anonyflow task. The first time, Composio asks you to connect your Anonyflow account.

For example, ask it to:

  • "Anonymize user email addresses before storage"
  • "Deanonymize a list of encrypted IDs"
  • "Test if Anonyflow API is reachable now"

What is the Anonyflow MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Anonyflow MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Anonyflow account. It provides structured and secure access to data anonymization, so your agent can anonymize values, protect selected parts of JSON data, restore anonymized information, and test the Anonyflow connection on your behalf.

  • Anonymize sensitive values: Have your agent anonymize individual strings or arrays of strings before they are shared or processed.
  • Protect JSON data packets: Let the agent anonymize complete JSON data packets when you need to conceal sensitive information.
  • Apply partial anonymization: Direct your agent to anonymize selected parts of a JSON data packet while leaving other content unchanged.
  • Restore anonymized data: Instruct your agent to deanonymize protected values or JSON data packets using your private key.
  • Test your Anonyflow connection: Have your agent check that it can connect to Anonyflow before running anonymization tasks.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Anonyflow with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Anonyflow 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 Anonyflow operations
  • Managed authentication through Composio
  • Access to 20,000+ tools across 1700+ apps for cross-app workflows
  • CodeAct workbench for complex tool chaining

Next steps:

  • Try asking Codex to perform various Anonyflow operations
  • Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits
  • Build automation scripts that leverage Codex's AI capabilities
