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 870+ 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 D2lbrightspace MCP in Codex
Run the setup command
Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex.
It will initiate the authentication in a browser window, authorize Codex to access your Composio account.
(Optional) Authenticate with OAuth
To authenticate manually, run the login command to open a browser window and authorize Codex to access your Composio account.
Verify the connection
Run codex mcp list to confirm Composio appears as a registered MCP server.
Codex App
Codex App follows the same approach as VS Code.
- Click ⚙️ on the bottom left → MCP Servers → + Add servers → Streamable HTTP:
- Fill the header and Key fields with
{ "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }. - The Key is the Composio API key, that you can find on connect.composio.dev
- Click on Authenticate and authorize Codex to your Composio account and you're all set.
- Restart and verify if it's there in
.codex/config.toml
What is the D2lbrightspace MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The D2lbrightspace MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your D2L Brightspace account. It provides structured and secure access to your LMS, so your agent can perform actions like creating courses, managing quizzes, handling user enrollment, and automating gradebook operations on your behalf.
- Automated course creation and management: Instantly create new courses, course offerings, or templates, and streamline updates or deletions without manual intervention.
- Quiz and assessment automation: Let your agent set up new quizzes, organize quiz categories, and configure assessment parameters to enhance the learning experience.
- Gradebook and feedback management: Effortlessly create, modify, or delete grade objects to keep your course grading up to date and provide prompt feedback to learners.
- User enrollment and management: Create new user accounts, manage user roles, and handle enrollment or impersonation tasks to simplify onboarding and administration.
- Role and permissions control: Copy existing roles, adjust specific permissions, and fine-tune access for different user groups—all directly through your agent.
