## Introduction

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

## Also integrate Kit with

## 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 Kit to Codex

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

The Kit MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Kit account. It provides structured and secure access to your subscriber lists, tags, forms, and automations, so your agent can perform actions like managing subscribers, creating tags, updating custom fields, and handling broadcasts on your behalf.
- Subscriber management and automation: Add new subscribers to forms, remove subscribers, or update their details to keep your audience lists accurate and engaged.
- Custom field and tag creation: Automatically create, update, or delete custom fields and tags, making it easy to segment and personalize your communications.
- Webhook and event setup: Set up or remove webhooks so your agent can listen for subscriber or purchase events and trigger automations as needed.
- Broadcast and campaign control: Delete obsolete broadcasts or manage your messaging campaigns directly through your agent for streamlined outreach.
- Account insights and configuration: Retrieve detailed account information, including plan details and primary contact, to keep your integrations and automations running smoothly.

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

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

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