How to integrate Bart MCP with Codex
Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With Bart MCP integration, you can draft, triage, summarise emails, and much more, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer.
Api Key
Bart is the Bay Area Rapid Transit system, providing fast public transportation across the San Francisco Bay Area. It helps commuters and travelers get real-time schedule info, plan routes, and stay updated on service changes.

Why use Composio?
Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:
- CodeAct: A dedicated workbench that allows GPT to write its code to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
- Large tool responses: Handle them to minimise context rot.
- Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 1000+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.
How to install Bart MCP in Codex
Run the setup command
Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex.
It will initiate the authentication in a browser window, authorize Codex to access your Composio account.
(Optional) Authenticate with OAuth
To authenticate manually, run the login command to open a browser window and authorize Codex to access your Composio account.
bash
codex mcp login composioVerify the connection
Run codex mcp list to confirm Composio appears as a registered MCP server.
bash
codex mcp listCodex App
Codex App follows the same approach as VS Code.
- Click ⚙️ on the bottom left → MCP Servers → + Add servers → Streamable HTTP:
- Fill the header and Key fields with
{ "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }. - The Key is the Composio API key, that you can find on dashboard.composio.dev
- Click on Authenticate and authorize Codex to your Composio account and you're all set.
- Restart and verify if it's there in
.codex/config.toml
bash
[mcp_servers.composio]
url = "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
http_headers = { "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }What is the Bart MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The Bart MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to BART's public transit data. It provides structured and secure access to real-time schedules, route information, station details, and service advisories, so your agent can plan trips, fetch live updates, check advisories, and explore routes for you.
- Trip planning with live schedules: Instantly retrieve train arrival or departure times and help users plan journeys between any BART stations based on the latest schedule data.
- Live service advisories and alerts: Keep travelers informed by fetching up-to-date system-wide or station-specific service advisories, ensuring users know about delays or disruptions before they travel.
- Route and station discovery: Access detailed information about BART routes and stations, including amenities and configuration, so your agent can answer travel questions or recommend stations.
- Real-time trip and schedule updates: Get the latest trip updates and schedule changes in real time, allowing users to adapt plans quickly if there are changes or issues along their route.
- Access to static and GTFS feeds: Download the latest BART GTFS (General Transit Feed Specification) data for offline schedule planning, analysis, or integration with third-party transit tools.
Conclusion
You've successfully integrated Bart with Codex using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Bart directly from your terminal, VS Code, or the Codex App using natural language commands.
Key benefits of this setup:
- Seamless integration across CLI, VS Code, and standalone app
- Natural language commands for Bart operations
- Managed authentication through Composio
- Access to 20,000+ tools across 1000+ apps for cross-app workflows
- CodeAct workbench for complex tool chaining
Next steps:
- Try asking Codex to perform various Bart operations
- Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits
- Build automation scripts that leverage Codex's AI capabilities

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
With a standalone Bart MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Bart tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Bart and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.
Yes, you can. Codex fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Bart tools.
Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Bart scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.
All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Bart data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.

A lot of students tell us that the moment their connected tools start talking to each other inside Opennote feels almost magical. The agent just knows them, and it's immensely helped keep new users on the platform.

We chose Composio over Pipedream because it delivered depth where it mattered — niche tools and tricky edge cases other platforms simply ignored. That gave us confidence to scale without compromising.

As a solo builder, shipping fast is life or death. The only way I can outcompete incumbents is by outmanoeuvring them. Getting bogged down managing agent auth would have been a death sentence.

Before Composio, adding tool integrations was slow and resource-intensive. Each one could take weeks of engineering time, and maintaining them meant constantly keeping up with API changes.
