Introduction

Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With Zyte api 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 Zyte api 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 connect.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_*******" }

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

The Zyte api MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Zyte api account. It provides structured and secure access to Zyte's web scraping and status monitoring tools, so your agent can perform actions like checking service health, monitoring incidents, reviewing maintenance schedules, and analyzing component statuses on your behalf.

  • Real-time service health summaries: Instantly request a high-level overview of Zyte API status, including component health, unresolved incidents, and active maintenances.
  • Incident monitoring and retrieval: Let your agent fetch unresolved incidents or review recent status incidents to stay on top of service disruptions and outages.
  • Maintenance schedule tracking: Ask your agent to list upcoming or currently active scheduled maintenances, so you never miss important downtime windows.
  • Component health insights: Have the agent retrieve detailed statuses for individual Zyte API components, helping you quickly diagnose potential issues in your pipeline.
  • Automated status rollups and alerts: Get consolidated summaries of the overall Zyte API health or trigger alerts when new incidents or maintenances are detected.

Supported Tools & Triggers

Tools
Fetch Active Scheduled MaintenancesTool to fetch currently active scheduled maintenances.
Get scheduled maintenancesTool to get the 50 most recent scheduled maintenances (upcoming and completed) from zyte status api.
Zyte API: Get Unresolved IncidentsTool to retrieve unresolved incidents from zyte status api.
List Zyte API status incidentsTool to list the 50 most recent incidents on the zyte api status page.
Zyte Status SummaryTool to get a summary of status indicators, component statuses, unresolved incidents, and scheduled maintenances.
Upcoming Scheduled MaintenancesTool to retrieve upcoming scheduled maintenance windows.
Zyte API ComponentsTool to fetch the list of zyte api service components and their statuses.
Get Zyte API Status RollupTool to retrieve the overall status rollup for the zyte api.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Zyte api with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Zyte api 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 Zyte api operations
  • Managed authentication through Composio
  • Access to 20,000+ tools across 870+ apps for cross-app workflows
  • CodeAct workbench for complex tool chaining

Next steps:

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

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Zyte api MCP?

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

Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Zyte api while using Tool Router?

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