Codex MCP Setup

Let Scibudy manage the MCP config for you:

scibudy install-codex

or during bootstrap:

scibudy bootstrap --profile base --install-codex

What this does

It updates the managed research MCP block in:

~/.codex/config.toml

Verify

codex mcp get research

You should see:

  • transport stdio
  • command path to research-mcp or scibudy-mcp
  • enabled analysis and library tools

If you do not want automatic Codex changes

Use:

scibudy bootstrap --profile base --no-install-codex

Then add the MCP config later with:

scibudy install-codex
