Introduction

Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With the Genderize MCP integration, Codex can predict gender from first names, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer.

Also integrate Genderize with

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 Genderize 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 Genderize task. The first time, Composio asks you to connect your Genderize account.

For example, ask it to:

  • "Predict gender for a single first name"
  • "Analyze gender breakdown for a list of names"
  • "Estimate gender distribution by country for event guests"

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

The Genderize MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Genderize account. It provides structured and secure access to gender prediction tools, so your agent can perform actions like analyzing names for gender, running batch predictions, and localizing results by country—all seamlessly on your behalf.

  • Single name gender prediction: Instantly determine the likely gender of any first name your agent encounters, complete with statistical confidence.
  • Batch gender analysis: Predict genders for a list of first names in one go, perfect for analyzing datasets or email lists efficiently.
  • Localized gender estimation: Enhance accuracy by predicting gender based on both name and country code, adapting results to regional naming trends.
  • Automated demographic tagging: Let your agent enrich contacts, surveys, or user lists with gender predictions to streamline data categorization and profiling.
  • Statistical breakdowns and probability scores: Access probability statistics for each prediction, allowing your agent to make informed decisions in downstream workflows.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Genderize with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Genderize 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 Genderize 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 Genderize operations
  • Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits
  • Build automation scripts that leverage Codex's AI capabilities
