Codexpro

Codexpro is a locally run MCP server that gives a ChatGPT session coding tools for repositories the user explicitly allows, including repository inspection, search, editing, review, verification, attachment import and handoff planning.

Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use Codexpro when you want a ChatGPT coding session to access selected local repositories through MCP, rather than sending the project to a separate indexing service or using a hosted coding workspace.

Who it is for

  • Developers who want ChatGPT to work with project files on their own machine.
  • Teams or individuals who want repository-scoped coding assistance and reviewable local changes.

Documented uses

  • Inspect a project’s structure, entry points, symbols and relationships.
  • Search code by text, regex, symbol, references or potential impact.
  • Edit allowed repository files and review changed areas, likely dependents and related tests.
  • Run allowlisted checks and preserve coding plans or context for a handoff.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The documented setup requires Node.js 20+, a ChatGPT account that can create custom MCP plugins, and an HTTPS URL to the local machine for ChatGPT web. The project is open source under the MIT license.

  • Repository access is limited to roots the user allows.
  • Analysis is local, bounded and cached by a workspace fingerprint; no model API key, language-server daemon, embedding service or vector database is required.
  • Writes remain hidden unless workspace write mode is enabled; safe Bash is the default and public tunnels require a Codexpro HTTP token.
  • ChatGPT web requires HTTPS, while the project also documents a local-only tunnel mode.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Set up Codexpro as a ChatGPT plugin

Install Codexpro in a repository and connect its local MCP server to ChatGPT.

Before you start

  • Node.js 20 or later
  • A ChatGPT account that can create custom MCP plugins
  • An HTTPS URL to the local machine for ChatGPT web, such as a tunnel or Tailscale Funnel

Steps

  1. Install Codexpro globally with npm install -g codexpro, move to the repository, and run codexpro setup.

  2. In ChatGPT, enable Developer Mode in Settings → Security and login, leaving CSP enforcement on.

  3. Under Settings → Plugins, create a plugin named CodexPro and paste the URL copied by Codexpro as the Server URL.

  4. Choose No Authentication / None in the plugin form; the Codexpro token is already in the URL. Do not share that URL.

Expected outcome

ChatGPT has a plugin connection to the local Codexpro server for the repository the user allows.

Guide limitations

  • ChatGPT web requires HTTPS to reach the local machine.
  • The guide describes plugin setup; it does not verify a successful connection or a coding task.
