Introduction

Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With the Refiner MCP integration, Codex can fetch survey responses, list forms and segments, manage contacts, track events, and pull reporting data, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer.

For exact tool slugs and parameter tables, see the tool catalog in the Composio docs.

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 1700+ 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 Refiner 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_*******" }

Try it

Ask Codex for a Refiner task. The first time, Composio asks you to connect your Refiner account.

For example, ask it to:

  • "List all active surveys this month"
  • "Fetch survey responses for NPS form"
  • "Update contact traits for user email"

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

The Refiner MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Refiner account. It provides structured and secure access to your customer feedback and survey data, so your agent can perform actions like fetching contacts, analyzing survey responses, managing user segments, updating user data, and generating reports on your behalf.

  • Contact management and updates: Effortlessly retrieve, update, or delete contact records, allowing your agent to keep user data clean and up-to-date.
  • Survey and form discovery: Instantly list all surveys or forms in your Refiner account, filter by state, and access their configurations for deeper analysis or reporting.
  • Survey response retrieval and analytics: Pull in all survey responses, filter results, and generate detailed analytics or reporting to uncover actionable insights from your customer feedback.
  • User segmentation and targeting: Fetch and browse user segments, enabling your agent to target specific groups for outreach or further analysis based on collected data.
  • Event tracking and behavioral logging: Automatically record user events, associate them with contacts, and enrich feedback data for advanced behavioral analytics.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Refiner with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Refiner 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 Refiner operations
  • Managed authentication through Composio
  • Access to 20,000+ tools across 1700+ apps for cross-app workflows
  • CodeAct workbench for complex tool chaining

Next steps:

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