-## Using Codex as an MCP Server
-
-The Codex CLI can also be run as an MCP _server_ via `codex mcp`. For example, you can use `codex mcp` to make Codex available as a tool inside of a multi-agent framework like the OpenAI [Agents SDK](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/agents).
-
-### Codex MCP Server Quickstart
-You can launch a Codex MCP server with the [Model Context Protocol Inspector](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/legacy/tools/inspector):
-
-``` bash
-npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector codex mcp
-```
-Send a `tools/list` request and you will see that there are two tools available:
-
-**`codex`** - Run a Codex session. Accepts configuration parameters matching the Codex Config struct. The `codex` tool takes the following properties:
-
-Property           | Type     | Description
--------------------|----------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-approval-policy    | string   | Approval policy for shell commands generated by the model: `untrusted`, `on-failure`, `never`.
-base-instructions  | string   | The set of instructions to use instead of the default ones.
-config             | object   | Individual [config settings](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/docs/config.md#config) that will override what is in CODEX_HOME/config.toml.
-cwd                | string   | Working directory for the session. If relative, resolved against the server process's current directory.
-include-plan-tool  | boolean  | Whether to include the plan tool in the conversation.
-model              | string   | Optional override for the model name (e.g. "o3", "o4-mini").
-profile            | string   | Configuration profile from config.toml to specify default options.
-**prompt** (required)             | string   | The initial user prompt to start the Codex conversation.
-sandbox            | string   | Sandbox mode: `read-only`, `workspace-write`, or `danger-full-access`.
-
-**`codex-reply`** - Continue a Codex session by providing the session id and prompt. The `codex-reply` tool takes the following properties:
-
-Property   | Type   | Description
------------|--------|---------------------------------------------------------------
-**prompt** (required)     | string | The next user prompt to continue the Codex conversation.
-**conversationId** (required)  | string | The id of the conversation to continue.
-
-### Trying it Out
 > [!TIP]
-> Codex often takes a few minutes to run. To accommodate this, adjust the MCP inspector's Request and Total timeouts to 600000ms (10 minutes) under ⛭ Configuration.
-
-Use the MCP inspector and `codex mcp` to build a simple tic-tac-toe game with the following settings:
-
-**approval-policy:** never
-
-**prompt:** Implement a simple tic-tac-toe game with HTML, Javascript, and CSS. Write the game in a single file called index.html.
-
-**sandbox:** workspace-write
-
-Click "Run Tool" and you should see a list of events emitted from the Codex MCP server as it builds the game.
+> It is somewhat experimental, but the Codex CLI can also be run as an MCP _server_ via `codex mcp`. If you launch it with an MCP client such as `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector codex mcp` and send it a `tools/list` request, you will see that there is only one tool, `codex`, that accepts a grab-bag of inputs, including a catch-all `config` map for anything you might want to override. Feel free to play around with it and provide feedback via GitHub issues.

 ## Connecting on a "Headless" Machine
 
 Today, the login process entails running a server on `localhost:1455`. If you are on a "headless" server, such as a Docker container or are `ssh`'d into a remote machine, loading `localhost:1455` in the browser on your local machine will not automatically connect to the webserver running on the _headless_ machine, so you must use one of the following workarounds:
