Introduction

Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With Hyperbrowser MCP integration, you can draft, triage, summarise emails, and much more, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer.

Also integrate Hyperbrowser 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 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 Hyperbrowser 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_*******" }

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

The Hyperbrowser MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Hyperbrowser account. It provides structured and secure access to automated browser sessions, web scraping, and browser-based task management, so your agent can launch sessions, extract data, manage automation jobs, and monitor progress on your behalf.

  • Automated browser session creation: Let your agent spin up new browser sessions with custom privacy, stealth, and proxy settings for tailored automation tasks.
  • Scalable web scraping and extraction: Easily initiate and manage scrape jobs to extract structured content from any target website, with support for session and scrape customization.
  • Real-time job status monitoring: Have your agent check, track, and report the live status of browser-use, crawl, or data extraction jobs, ensuring you always know what's happening.
  • Retrieve results from automation jobs: Fetch and review the outputs of completed crawl or extract jobs, including paginated data and detailed results, right inside your workflow.
  • Profile and automation management: Create or delete Hyperbrowser profiles as needed, giving you flexible control over your automation environment and resources.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Hyperbrowser with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Hyperbrowser 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 Hyperbrowser operations
  • Managed authentication through Composio
  • Access to 20,000+ tools across 870+ apps for cross-app workflows
  • CodeAct workbench for complex tool chaining

Next steps:

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

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Hyperbrowser MCP?

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

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

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