codex_async

MCP tool from Codex MCP Swarm by TKasperczyk

Launch a task, get a taskid immediately (fan-out). Not fire-and-forget: results come back only via codexwait. Pass threadId to resume a session

How to use it

codex_async is exposed by the Codex MCP Swarm MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), and the codex_async tool becomes available to the model automatically. See the full listing for setup details and every tool this server provides.
