Intelligent MCP Connection Guide for OpenAI Codex & VisualPro

Three-Line TOML MCP Setup for Conversational Safety Analysis & Automated FMEA/STPA/FTA/TARA

01. VisualPro MCP Integration Overview & Key Values

Codex is an AI coding agent from OpenAI that connects directly to the VisualPro MCP Server through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) standard. Registration is completed by adding just three lines to the configuration file (config.toml).

⚙️ Three-Line TOML Registration

Register the VisualPro MCP Server by adding a single TOML block to config.toml — no complex installation required

⚡ Conversational FMEA / STPA / FTA and TARA

Recommend Safety Mechanisms and build failure networks using natural language

🔒 On-Premise Data Security

Perform real-time engineering analysis securely on-device, fully compliant with enterprise security policies

02. Prerequisites & Required Environment

VisualPro InstallationLatest VisualPro solution and VisualPro.McpServer.exe binary (Default: C:\Program Files\VWAY\MCPServer\)
Codex AppLatest Codex installed and signed in with your ChatGPT account following the official OpenAI instructions (openai.com/codex)
OS & PermissionsWindows 10 / 11 (64-bit), permissions to edit configuration files in your user folder with a text editor (e.g., Notepad)

03. 5-Step Codex Integration Guide

STEP 1. Prepare the Codex App

Install the Codex app on your PC, launch it, and sign in.

STEP 2. Edit the Configuration File (config.toml)

Open the config.toml file at the path below with a text editor, add the TOML code, and save it. If the file does not exist, simply create it at the same location.

📁 Configuration File Path

%USERPROFILE%\.codex\config.toml

💻 config.toml

[mcp_servers.VisualPro]
command = 'C:\Program Files\VWAY\MCPServer\VisualPro.McpServer.exe'
args = []

STEP 3. Restart the Codex App

After completing the setup, fully quit and restart the Codex app. Configuration changes take effect only after a restart.

STEP 4. Verify MCP Registration

Check that the VisualPro MCP Server is registered correctly in Codex. When VisualPro appears in the MCP tool list, the connection is ready.

STEP 5. Start VisualPro AI Conversational Analysis

With VisualPro running, freely instruct analyses in the Codex session using natural language such as 'Run FMEA failure mode analysis' or 'Verify Safety Mechanisms'.

04. Cautions & Notes

  config.toml uses the TOML format. Wrapping the path in single quotes (') lets you write backslashes (\) as-is; with double quotes (") you must escape them, e.g., C:\\Program Files\\...

  The VisualPro MCP Server is a local (stdio) executable that runs as a subprocess on your PC — no network access required. (This differs from remote MCP servers that require an HTTPS address.)

  After editing the configuration file, fully quit and restart the Codex app for the changes to take effect.

  VisualPro must be running before you start an analysis.
