Step 3

Connect Codex

Connect an agent from a different ecosystem. Reuse what you made in Step 2 so you can see it travel. Connect a second agent and get Pro free for 2 weeks.

Log in to connect Codex
  1. In your terminal, run:
codex CLI
codex mcp add kody --url https://kody.codes/mcp
  1. Run codex mcp login kody if sign-in does not start (add --no-browser when there is no local browser).

The ChatGPT desktop app, Codex CLI, and Codex IDE extension share ~/.codex/config.toml, so you only add Kody once. See OpenAI's MCP docs.

Installed Kody from the public ChatGPT plugin directory before? That listing is outdated and no longer updates. Uninstall it and add Kody as a custom MCP connection instead.

Or add Kody in the ChatGPT desktop app or Codex IDE extension:
  1. In the ChatGPT desktop app, open Settings, then select MCP servers.
  2. Select Add server, enter the name Kody, choose Streamable HTTP, and paste this MCP URL:
MCP URL
https://kody.codes/mcp
  1. Save the server, then select Restart.
  2. Select Authenticate and sign in to Kody. Type /mcp in the composer to see Kody connected.
  1. In the Codex IDE extension, open the gear menu, then select MCP servers.
  2. Select Add server, enter the name Kody, choose Streamable HTTP, and paste this MCP URL:
MCP URL
https://kody.codes/mcp
  1. Save the server, select Restart extension, then select Authenticate and sign in to Kody.
Open Codex
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.kody]
url = "https://kody.codes/mcp"

After it connects, paste this in the new agent. It looks up the portability guide and reuses what you already made — one short proof that Kody travels.

Portability proof
I just connected you as a second agent. Look up the portability guide with search({ entity: "guide:portability" }) and reuse what I made in Step 2. One short proof.

Depth lives in the portability guide. The prompt tells your agent to retrieve it.
