## Introduction

Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With Graphhopper 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 870+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

## Connect Graphhopper to Codex

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

The Graphhopper MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Graphhopper account. It provides structured and secure access to powerful routing, geocoding, and optimization services, so your agent can perform actions like planning routes, solving vehicle routing problems, geocoding addresses, and generating travel time isochrones on your behalf.
- Advanced route planning and optimization: Calculate complex routes for cars, bikes, or trucks using advanced parameters, waypoints, and custom profiles, all without manual map work.
- Batch distance and time calculations: Let your agent generate distance or time matrices for multiple origins and destinations, streamlining logistics and route optimization tasks.
- Geocoding and reverse geocoding: Convert between street addresses and GPS coordinates, or look up locations by latitude/longitude, making address management and mapping effortless.
- Isochrone map generation: Automatically create isochrone polygons to visualize areas reachable within a specific travel time or distance from any point—perfect for delivery zones, emergency planning, or site selection.
- Vehicle routing problem (VRP) solving: Offload complex fleet and logistics challenges to your agent, letting it assign deliveries, optimize routes, and minimize travel distances or costs using Graphhopper's VRP tools.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Graphhopper MCP?

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

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

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