How to integrate Persona MCP with Codex
Connect Codex to Persona MCP. Get all pending verification cases, trigger a new kyc verification for user, and more using natural language, with authentication handled for you.
Persona offers identity infrastructure to automate user verification and compliance. It helps organizations securely verify users and reduce fraud risk.
Introduction
Also integrate Persona 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 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 Persona MCP in Codex
Run the setup command

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
[mcp_servers.composio]
url = "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
http_headers = { "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }What is the Persona MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The Persona MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Persona account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Persona operations on your behalf.
Conclusion
You've successfully integrated Persona with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Persona 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 Persona operations
- Managed authentication through Composio
- Access to 20,000+ tools across 1000+ apps for cross-app workflows
