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 1500+ 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 Yousearch 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.
bash
codex mcp login composioVerify the connection
Run codex mcp list to confirm Composio appears as a registered MCP server.
bash
codex mcp listCodex 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 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
bash
[mcp_servers.composio]
url = "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
http_headers = { "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }What is the Yousearch MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The You.com MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your You.com account. It provides structured and secure access to web search, citation-backed answers, research, webpage content, and image search, so your agent can find current information, answer questions with sources, conduct in-depth research, read webpages, and discover images on your behalf.
- Web search: Have your agent search the web for relevant, up-to-date information from You.com.
- Citation-backed answers: Let the agent answer your questions using web results and include sources for verification.
- In-depth research: Direct your agent to conduct multi-step research, run longer studies in the background, and check their progress and results.
- Finance research: Instruct your agent to research company fundamentals, market prices, macroeconomic indicators, SEC filings, private companies, and alternative financial signals.
- Webpage and image discovery: Have your agent extract clean content from known webpages or search You.com for relevant images.
Conclusion
You've successfully integrated Yousearch with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Yousearch 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 Yousearch operations
- Managed authentication through Composio
- Access to 20,000+ tools across 1500+ apps for cross-app workflows
- CodeAct workbench for complex tool chaining
Next steps:
- Try asking Codex to perform various Yousearch operations
- Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits
- Build automation scripts that leverage Codex's AI capabilities

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
With a standalone Yousearch MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Yousearch tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Yousearch and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.
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 Yousearch tools.
Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Yousearch 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.
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 Yousearch data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
