Connect Codex to RobinReach
To connect OpenAI Codex to RobinReach, make sure Node.js is installed and run codex mcp add robinreach -- npx -y mcp-remote followed by your RobinReach URL with your API key. Codex then has 77 RobinReach tools in every session: it can write, schedule and publish posts on 13 networks, read your analytics and answer comments. The Codex CLI, the IDE extension and the ChatGPT desktop app share the same setup. It is included on the Bloom, Thrive and Scale plans.

Run codex and ask it to list your RobinReach brands.
Prefer editing the config file?
Add this block to ~/.codex/config.toml instead of running the command. The file holds your key, so keep it private.

command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://robinreach.com/mcp/v1/messages?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY"]Things to ask Codex

If something does not work
Codex says npx was not found
Install Node.js from nodejs.org, open a new terminal and run the command again.
The tools do not show up
Run codex mcp list to check robinreach is there, then start a new Codex session so it loads the server.
I pasted my key somewhere public
Create a new key on the Integrations page in RobinReach. The old one stops working at once; update the command or config with the new key.
Codex and RobinReach: questions people ask
Does Codex work with RobinReach in VS Code or the ChatGPT desktop app?
Yes. The Codex CLI, the IDE extension and the ChatGPT desktop app read the same config, so adding RobinReach once covers all three.
Why does Codex need Node.js?
The setup uses mcp-remote, a small open source bridge that runs with npx and carries Codex's requests to RobinReach over the web.
Can Codex sign in without an API key?
Codex can connect to HTTP servers and sign in with codex mcp login. The API key setup above is the one the RobinReach dashboard gives, and it works without a browser.
Can I connect just one brand?
Yes. Use that brand's key from its Integrations page. Codex then only reaches that brand.
Which plans include it?
On RobinReach, the Bloom, Thrive and Scale plans. On the OpenAI side, any plan that includes Codex.
