# Connect DexPaprika MCP to Codex

> Add the DexPaprika MCP server to OpenAI Codex CLI with one command. Give Codex live DEX market data across 36 blockchains over streamable HTTP. No API key needed to start.

[OpenAI Codex CLI](https://github.com/openai/codex) supports MCP servers, so you can give it live DEX market data from DexPaprika. The hosted server is keyless, so there is no API key or token to configure.

## Add it with one command

```bash theme={null}
codex mcp add dexpaprika --url https://mcp.dexpaprika.com/streamable-http
```

This writes the server to `~/.codex/config.toml`. Codex connects to it over streamable HTTP on the next run.

## Or configure it manually

Add this to `~/.codex/config.toml`:

```toml theme={null}
[mcp_servers.dexpaprika]
url = "https://mcp.dexpaprika.com/streamable-http"
```

No `bearer_token_env_var` or OAuth options are needed. The DexPaprika API is keyless.

## Verify

Start Codex and ask a question that needs live data:

```
Which blockchain networks does DexPaprika support, and what are the top pools on Base by volume?
```

Codex should call the DexPaprika tools and return current data. List configured servers any time with:

```bash theme={null}
codex mcp list
```

## What you get

The server exposes 20 tools covering networks, pools, tokens, OHLCV, transactions, and cross-chain search. See the [MCP tools reference](https://docs.dexpaprika.com/ai-integration/mcp-tools.md) for the full list, parameters, and the `getCapabilities` onboarding tool.

## FAQs

> **Do I need an API key for Codex?**
>
> No. The hosted DexPaprika MCP server is keyless, so there is no token or OAuth to configure. The hosted server runs tool calls on its own shared capacity, not on a plan of yours, so a key raises no limit there. The exceptions are the tools that need a paid plan, which run on your own Dev, Pro or Enterprise key; see [the hosted server page](https://docs.dexpaprika.com/ai-integration/hosted-mcp-server.md). Limits for direct REST calls are on [rate limits](https://docs.dexpaprika.com/knowledge-base/rate-limits.md).

> **Which transport does Codex use?**
>
> Streamable HTTP. Point Codex at `https://mcp.dexpaprika.com/streamable-http`. The same server also serves SSE (`/sse`) for clients that prefer it.

> **How do I remove the server?**
>
> Delete the `[mcp_servers.dexpaprika]` block from `~/.codex/config.toml`, or run `codex mcp` to manage configured servers.
