Fastest setup

Connect Codex

codex mcp add gofaceless --url https://mcp.gofaceless.ai/mcp

Run the command in your terminal. Codex opens your browser to sign in; if it does not, run codex mcp login gofaceless.

Setup

Connect in three steps

01

Add the remote server

Copy and run the command below. Codex saves GoFaceless in ~/.codex/config.toml, so it is there in every project.

02

Sign in and allow it

Codex opens your browser. If it does not, run codex mcp login gofaceless. Sign in to GoFaceless or create an account, choose the organization, and allow the connection.

03

Use Codex interactively

Start codex and ask it to use GoFaceless. Making or changing a video needs your approval in the session, so codex exec can only read: your videos, credits, and templates.

First request

Confirm the connection

“Use GoFaceless to list my recent video sessions and summarize their current statuses.”

GoFaceless keeps organization access scoped and revocable. Paid generation still respects the visible quote and your authorized spending limit.

Troubleshooting

If something does not connect

Codex says "Auth required" or "Transport channel closed"+

GoFaceless is not signed in for Codex yet, or the sign-in expired. Run codex mcp login gofaceless, then start a new Codex session.

codex exec cannot make a video+

Tools that make or change videos need your approval, and codex exec cannot ask for it. Run codex interactively for those requests.
