Give your agent this one instruction

You end up with more than a connector: the busabase skill carries the whole approval-first workflow, the CLI, and the full API — available in every future session without re-pasting anything.

Asks first

Busabase Cloud or Personal Desktop — your call, before anything happens.

Connects

Signs you in and stores the credential itself. No API key to copy by hand.

Seeds a Base

Creates and fills your first Base, so the workspace is not an empty screen.

Installs the skills

busabase and busabase-app-creator become permanent, for every session after this.

Prefer a connector?

If you would rather wire Busabase in as MCP tools than let the agent install a skill, use the server URL below.

MCP + OAuth · Plugin / Skill
Transport
Streamable HTTP
Authentication
OAuth (dynamic registration)
Run this
codex mcp add busabase --url https://busabase.com/api/mcp
codex mcp login busabase --scopes mcp

Add the server, start OAuth explicitly if needed, then inspect the connection:

codex mcp add busabase --url https://busabase.com/api/mcp
codex mcp login busabase --scopes mcp
codex mcp list

Inside Codex, use /mcp to confirm that Busabase is connected and its tools are enabled. Then ask it to call auth_verify.

To change the Busabase account or consent grant:

codex mcp logout busabase
codex mcp login busabase --scopes mcp

Remove the configuration entirely with codex mcp remove busabase.

Codex MCP documentation

Known gotchas

Switching the Busabase account or grant needs `codex mcp logout busabase` before logging in again.

These stepsFrom official docsNo check date recorded

Written from this agent's own documentation. We have not re-run every step on a real machine, so check the linked docs if a command has changed.

Let your agent do the setup

One instruction, reviewed access, and every change it makes afterwards arrives as a proposal you approve.
