## Introduction

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

## Also integrate TinyPNG 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 1000+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

## Connect TinyPNG to Codex

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

The TinyPNG MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your TinyPNG account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform TinyPNG operations on your behalf.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `TINYPNG_GET_COMPRESSION_COUNT` | Get TinyPNG Compression Count | Tool to retrieve the number of compressions made this month. Use when you need to monitor your TinyPNG API usage. |
| `TINYPNG_SHRINK_AND_GET_IMAGE_ID` | Shrink and get image ID | Tool to shrink an image and return its TinyPNG image ID. Use when you need only the compressed image identifier from the API response Location header. |
| `TINYPNG_TINIFY_COMPRESS_AND_STORE_IN_AZURE` | Compress and Store Image in Azure | Compress an image using the Tinify API and upload the optimized result directly to Azure Blob Storage in a single operation. The image is first compressed by Tinify, then uploaded to the specified Azure Blob URL using the provided SAS token. Use this when you need to optimize images and store them in Azure without intermediate steps. Supports JPEG, PNG, and WebP image formats. |
| `TINYPNG_TINIFY_OUTPUT` | Download Compressed Image | Tool to retrieve a compressed image by its image ID. Use after compressing an image to download the result. |
| `TINYPNG_TRANSFORM_IMAGE` | Transform Compressed Image | Tool to transform a compressed image by resizing, converting format, preserving metadata, or storing to cloud storage. Use when you have an image ID from a previous compression and need to apply transformations. |

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The TinyPNG MCP server provides comprehensive access to TinyPNG operations through Composio. Once connected, you can perform all major TinyPNG actions directly from Codex using natural language commands.

## Conclusion

### Conclusion
You've successfully integrated TinyPNG with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with TinyPNG 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 TinyPNG operations
- Managed authentication through Composio
- Access to 20,000+ tools across 1000+ apps for cross-app workflows
- CodeAct workbench for complex tool chaining
Next steps:
- Try asking Codex to perform various TinyPNG operations
- Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits
- Build automation scripts that leverage Codex's AI capabilities

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

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

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