Add dotsweep to Codex
Two lines in ~/.codex/config.toml, or
.codex/config.toml for a single project.
[mcp_servers.dotsweep] url = "https://dotsweep.com/mcp"
Codex reads skills from ~/.agents/skills/ as well, so the
paste-one-message path is an alternative that adds no
server.
Codex's own MCP documentation is at learn.chatgpt.com.
The endpoint is https://dotsweep.com/mcp — one URL, no account, no API key and no
OAuth. It is free, and nothing runs on your machine: your assistant calls this
site over HTTPS.
When it does not work
| What you see | What it means |
|---|---|
| "I can't run that command from here" | A CLI command went into a chat window. Use the connector steps instead — that assistant has no shell and no access to your settings. |
| Nothing to tap in the phone app | Connectors are added on the web. Add it at claude.ai in a browser and it syncs. |
| Added, but no tools appear | Switch it on in the conversation's tool menu. A new connector is off in existing chats. |
| "Could not connect" | Check the URL ends in /mcp and
is https. /health answers if the origin is
up. |
| It answers, but still reaches for whois | Say so once: a raw whois reports a rate-limited registry as available, which is the answer that costs money. That is what this server exists to stop. |
What to ask once it is added
- "Is acmeforge.com free? Check .io and .ai too."
- "What does .ai actually cost to own for two years?"
- "Here are twelve name ideas — which have a free .com?"
Another client
- Claude — claude.ai, the desktop app and the phone apps — a custom connector
- Claude Code — one terminal command, or the skill instead of the server
- Cursor — one click, or the same JSON as every other editor
- VS Code — one click, or the same JSON as every other editor
- Any MCP client — Windsurf, Zed, Claude Desktop and anything else that speaks MCP
