Setup

The simplest path is to let the SiteCMD desktop app write the config for you: open SiteCMD, go to Integrations, and connect Codex. The app registers the MCP server and runs it bundled inside the app via your local Node, so there is nothing to install separately.

Codex also supports MCP servers via its configuration file. To wire it up by hand, point Codex at the bundled server script. On macOS:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sitecmd": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/Applications/SiteCMD.app/Contents/Resources/sitecmd-mcp/sitecmd-mcp.mjs"]
    }
  }
}

What you get

Once connected, Codex can:

Read scan results for any project in SiteCMD
List open issues filtered by severity or category
Get fix prompts with full context for each issue
Check score trends to see if recent changes helped or hurt
List all projects and their current health scores
Get scan instructions for running a scan and comparing results when you need fresh data

Usage

After connecting, ask Codex to check your scan results:

codex "Check the latest SiteCMD scan for my-project and fix any critical issues"

Codex will read the scan data through MCP and apply fixes with context from SiteCMD’s Web Scan, Code Scan, update, and history data.
