2. Sign in

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

3. Try it

Ask Codex for something ZenRows can do. Scrape and extract structured data from sites that block bots, run batch and crawl jobs, and automate a remote browser through ZenRows. 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.
