Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With Test app 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 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 Test app 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 connect.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 Test app MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The Test app MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Test app account. It provides structured and secure access to your Test app tools, so your agent can perform actions like running automated tasks, triggering custom actions, and combining multiple app features on your behalf.
- Execute Action One instantly: Direct your agent to perform the "Action one" operation, automating key Test app workflows without manual intervention.
- Trigger Action Two seamlessly: Instruct your agent to initiate "Action two" whenever you need, making it easy to manage repetitive or complex processes.
- Combine multiple Test app operations: Let your agent chain together both "Action one" and "Action two" for multi-step automation, all in a single request.
- Streamline repetitive tasks: Offload routine actions to your agent, boosting efficiency and reducing manual errors within Test app.
