Official serverRemoteAuthentication

1. Add the server

Run in your terminal

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

2. Sign in

Run codex mcp login <name> to complete OAuth for a remote server. WorkOS is hosted by WorkOS, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.

3. Try it

Ask Codex for something WorkOS can do. Manage WorkOS organizations, users, SSO, Directory Sync and AuthKit. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.

· Each server is a [mcp_servers.<name>] table in config.toml.
· Use enabled_tools or disabled_tools to keep the tool list short.
