Enable Claude Code, Cursor and other AI tools to call Codex for task execution. Plus/Pro/Team subscribers can maximize GPT-5 usage without additional costs.

Setup

1. Install Codex CLI

npm install -g @openai/codex
codex login

2. Configure MCP

Add to your .mcp.json: Safe Mode (Default):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codex": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["codex-as-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Writable Mode:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codex": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["codex-as-mcp@latest", "--yolo"]
    }
  }
}

Or use Claude Code commands:

# Safe mode (default)
claude mcp add codex-as-mcp -- uvx codex-as-mcp@latest

# Writable mode
claude mcp add codex-as-mcp -- uvx codex-as-mcp@latest --yolo

Tools

The MCP server exposes two tools:

codex_execute(prompt, work_dir) - General purpose codex execution
codex_review(review_type, work_dir, target?, prompt?) - Specialized code review

If you have any other use case requirements, feel free to open issue.

Safety

Safe Mode: Default read-only operations protect your environment
Writable Mode: Use --yolo flag when you need full codex capabilities
Sequential Execution: Prevents conflicts from parallel agent operations

Server Config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codex": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "codex-as-mcp@latest",
        "--yolo"
      ],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Zhipu Web SearchZhipu Web Search MCP Server is a search engine specifically designed for large models. It integrates four search engines, allowing users to flexibly compare and switch between them. Building upon the web crawling and ranking capabilities of traditional search engines, it enhances intent recognition capabilities, returning results more suitable for large model processing (such as webpage titles, URLs, summaries, site names, site icons, etc.). This helps AI applications achieve "dynamic knowledge acquisition" and "precise scenario adaptation" capabilities.
