Codex

Add Relay's MCP connection and SEO skills to Codex CLI and Codex in the ChatGPT desktop app.

Codex CLI

1. Connect Relay and sign in:

codex mcp add relay --url https://relay.playbookmedia.io/mcp
codex mcp login relay

2. Add the SEO skills:

npx skills add https://github.com/PlaybookMediaLLC/open-seo/tree/main/plugins/openseo/skills --skill '*' --agent codex

Restart Codex, then ask:

Use Relay to check my connection and list my projects.

This check is free. Then ask Codex to use SEO Coach.

Codex in the ChatGPT desktop app

The easiest way is to open Codex, start a new chat, and paste the setup prompt. To do it by hand:

  1. Open Codex → Settings → MCP servers → Add server.
  2. Name it relay, choose Streamable HTTP, and enter https://relay.playbookmedia.io/mcp.
  3. Save, and select Restart when asked.
  4. Select Authenticate for Relay and approve the sign-in.
  5. Start a new Codex chat and run the connection check above.

A local Codex setup does not connect ChatGPT on the web. For that, see the ChatGPT guide.

Troubleshooting

  • "Authorization server response missing required issuer": update Codex to 0.147.0 or later, or use an API key.
  • Tools do not appear: restart Codex and start a new chat.
