## Introduction

Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With Anthropic administrator 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 Anthropic administrator to Codex

### How to install Anthropic administrator 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 Anthropic administrator MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Anthropic Administrator MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Anthropic Administrator account. It provides structured and secure access to available Claude models and message completions, so your agent can browse models, inspect model details, select a suitable model, and create Claude message completions on your behalf.
- Available model discovery: Have your agent list the Claude models currently available for your tasks.
- Model detail retrieval: Direct your agent to retrieve information about a specific Claude model.
- Model comparison: Let the agent review available models and their details to help you choose one for your use case.
- Claude message creation: Instruct your agent to send a prompt to Claude and generate a message completion.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ANTHROPIC_ADMINISTRATOR_CREATE_MESSAGE` | Create Message | Create a message completion from Claude. Send a conversation history with user/assistant messages and receive Claude's response. Useful for: chatbots, Q&A systems, text generation, conversational AI, and any task requiring natural language understanding or generation. |
| `ANTHROPIC_ADMINISTRATOR_GET_MODEL` | Get Model | Tool to retrieve details of a specific model by its ID. Use after confirming the model ID is valid. |
| `ANTHROPIC_ADMINISTRATOR_LIST_MODELS` | List models | Tool to list available models. Use when you need to see which models are available before selection. Always source model IDs from this tool rather than hard-coding them; stale or outdated model IDs passed to CREATE_MESSAGE will cause a not_found_error. |

## Supported Triggers

None listed.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Anthropic administrator MCP server provides comprehensive access to Anthropic administrator operations through Composio. Once connected, you can perform all major Anthropic administrator actions directly from Codex using natural language commands.

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Conclusion
You've successfully integrated Anthropic administrator with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Anthropic administrator 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 Anthropic administrator operations

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Anthropic administrator MCP?

With a standalone Anthropic administrator MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Anthropic administrator tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Anthropic administrator 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 Anthropic administrator tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Anthropic administrator while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Anthropic administrator 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 Anthropic administrator data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
