Connect Codex to Quest Portal

Add Quest Portal to OpenAI Codex with one command, in the CLI, the desktop app or the IDE extension.

The address to use: https://mcp.questportal.com/mcp

Partly tested by Quest Portal. Menu names change, so if a step doesn't match what you see, look for the closest option or check OpenAI's documentation: https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/extend/mcp?surface=cli

What you need

  • A Quest Portal account with Core or Pro, including the free trials. With Core your assistant can read your campaigns; with Pro it can also make changes.

  • Codex installed.

Set up

Step 1: Add the server. In a terminal, run:

Step 2: Sign in. If Codex doesn't open your browser by itself, run:

Step 3: Approve access in Quest Portal. A Quest Portal page opens in your browser. Sign in if asked, check what Codex is asking to use, and click Allow access.

Good to know

  • We ran Codex as far as the Quest Portal approval page. The steps after that follow OpenAI's documentation.

  • The Codex CLI, the desktop app and the IDE extension share one configuration. In the app, the same setting is under Settings, then MCP servers.

  • On a machine without a browser, run codex mcp login questportal --no-browser.

  • Check the connection with codex mcp list. Remove it with codex mcp remove questportal.

  • You can install the Quest Portal plugin instead: codex plugin marketplace add QuestPortal/plugins.

More fun at the table, less fuss around it

The tavern falls quiet. You spent all week on this villain: the scarred voice, the secret letter, the slow reveal in the final act. Your players have other plans. They have just set fire to the only bridge out of town, the paladin is deep in an argument with a goat, and the rogue has quietly pocketed the letter that was supposed to unravel everything. Somewhere across the river, your villain stands alone in the rain, waiting for an entrance that will never come. The bard leans back, grinning. Four faces turn to you.
