How to integrate Elorus MCP with Codex
Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With Elorus MCP integration, you can draft, triage, summarise emails, and much more, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer.
Elorus is an online invoicing and time-tracking software for freelancers and small businesses. Easily manage finances, bill clients, and track work in one place.
Introduction

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 Elorus MCP in Codex
Run the setup command
Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex.
It will initiate the authentication in a browser window, authorize Codex to access your Composio account.

(Optional) Authenticate with OAuth

codex mcp login composioVerify the connection
Run codex mcp list to confirm Composio appears as a registered MCP server.
codex mcp listCodex App
Codex App follows the same approach as VS Code.
- Click ⚙️ on the bottom left → MCP Servers → + Add servers → Streamable HTTP:
- Fill the header and Key fields with
{ "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }. - The Key is the Composio API key, that you can find on dashboard.composio.dev
- Click on Authenticate and authorize Codex to your Composio account and you're all set.
- Restart and verify if it's there in
.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.composio]
url = "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
http_headers = { "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }What is the Elorus MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The Elorus MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Elorus account. It provides structured and secure access to your invoicing, billing, and time-tracking tools, so your agent can perform actions like creating invoices, managing contacts, tracking estimates, and sending billing communications on your behalf.
- Automated invoice creation and delivery: Instruct your agent to generate new invoices, fill in all necessary details, and instantly email them to clients or contacts with just a prompt.
- Comprehensive contact management: Ask your agent to fetch, list, and organize your business contacts, so you can easily keep your client database up to date or find specific clients in seconds.
- Dynamic bills and expenses tracking: Let your agent retrieve and manage lists of bills and expenses, helping you stay on top of accounts payable and overall financial health.
- Flexible product and service catalog management: Direct your agent to create new products or services, update details, or fetch lists of items for invoicing and inventory purposes.
- Estimates and credit notes retrieval: Have your agent pull up estimates or credit notes with filters for date, contact, or status—ideal for monitoring ongoing deals and financial adjustments.

Karan skipped his own birthday party to fix our critical issue. It was 10pm and he diverted his Waymo to help us instead. This really sets the bar — it shows the commitment you need when users rely on your software.
A lot of students tell us that the moment their connected tools start talking to each other inside Opennote feels almost magical. The agent just knows them, and it's immensely helped keep new users on the platform.
We chose Composio over Pipedream because it delivered depth where it mattered — niche tools and tricky edge cases other platforms simply ignored. That gave us confidence to scale without compromising.
As a solo builder, shipping fast is life or death. The only way I can outcompete incumbents is by outmanoeuvring them. Getting bogged down managing agent auth would have been a death sentence.
Before Composio, adding tool integrations was slow and resource-intensive. Each one could take weeks of engineering time, and maintaining them meant constantly keeping up with API changes.
With hands-on help from their founder, we integrated Gmail and Google Drive in just 30 minutes. This level of personal support and commitment is exactly what startups should strive for.
