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 1000+ 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 Claid ai 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 dashboard.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 Claid ai MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Claid ai MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Claid ai account. It provides structured and secure access to powerful AI image editing features, so your agent can perform actions like removing backgrounds, generating AI photoshoots, upscaling, and editing images in bulk on your behalf.

  • AI-powered background removal: Instantly have your agent isolate subjects from any image by removing backgrounds with a single command.
  • Automated product photoshoots: Let your agent transform plain product images into professional model photoshoots, complete with realistic AI-generated backgrounds.
  • Batch and async image editing: Direct your agent to process multiple images at once or submit complex, text-driven edits for asynchronous processing—perfect for large workflows.
  • Generative resizing and enhancement: Ask your agent to resize images using outpainting or upscale and enhance visuals to meet any platform’s requirements.
  • Privacy and compliance automation: Have your agent blur license plates in images or apply other privacy-preserving edits before sharing or publishing assets.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Claid ai with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Claid ai 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 Claid ai operations
  • Managed authentication through Composio
  • Access to 20,000+ tools across 1000+ apps for cross-app workflows
  • CodeAct workbench for complex tool chaining

Next steps:

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Claid ai MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Claid ai tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Claid ai and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

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 Claid ai tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Claid ai 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.

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 Claid ai data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
