Codex

The Codex CLI, IDE extension and Codex app share one MCP configuration, so you only set ScrapeBadger up once.

Setup

Add the server

codex mcp add scrapebadger --url https://mcp.scrapebadger.com/mcp

codex mcp login scrapebadger

Your browser opens the ScrapeBadger sign-in and consent screen. Approve it, and Codex stores the token. You don’t need an API key.

Prefer an API key? Export it and point Codex at the variable instead of running codex mcp login:

export SCRAPEBADGER_API_KEY=sb_live_...
codex mcp add scrapebadger --url https://mcp.scrapebadger.com/mcp --bearer-token-env-var SCRAPEBADGER_API_KEY

Once connected, Codex can call any of ScrapeBadger’s tools while it works. Try:

“Pull the latest 20 tweets from @openai and write them to tweets.json”

“Scrape https://example.com/pricing and turn the plans into a TypeScript type”
