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

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 1000+ 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 Kadoa 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 dashboard.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 Kadoa MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The Kadoa MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Kadoa account. It provides structured and secure access to your data extraction workflows, so your agent can launch crawls, monitor sessions, retrieve extracted data, and manage workflow configurations automatically on your behalf.
- Automated workflow monitoring and management: Ask your agent to fetch workflow configurations, enable data validation, or get the latest results from any extraction workflow you have set up.
- Crawling session control: Have your agent check the status of crawl sessions, list all crawled pages, and pull the raw content (HTML or Markdown) from any page processed by a workflow.
- Notification channel setup and retrieval: Direct your agent to create notification channels, list available notification event types, and fetch specific channel configurations for streamlined alerting.
- Location and environment awareness: Let your agent retrieve all supported locations to ensure workflows run in the right environment before launching new extraction jobs.
- Seamless data access: Instruct your agent to quickly get the most recent data output from any workflow, keeping your automations and dashboards always up to date.

FAQ
What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Kadoa MCP?
With a standalone Kadoa MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Kadoa tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Kadoa 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 Kadoa tools.
Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Kadoa while using Tool Router?
Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Kadoa 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 Kadoa data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
