codex

MCP tool from Codex MCP Bridge by hampsterx

Execute prompts with file context, session resume, and sandbox control. Multi-turn conversations via session IDs. Use for free-form review prompts; see Code review with this CLI.

How to use it

Project documentation lists codex for the Codex MCP Bridge MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
