MCP tools available.

Codex CLI automatically discovers and uses these tools.

  • get_financial_context

    Read-only compact FinancialContext JSON. Includes status.position, status.accounts, transaction index total/months, recurring, budgets, goals, snapshots, liabilities, holdings, and health. The status.position field is a point-in-time (as-of-date) balance snapshot, separate from transaction and behavior windows. A null position means no position snapshot is available. Transaction items are not inline; use get_transactions for items. "Show my connected accounts and current balances"

  • get_transactions

    Read-only transactions from the FinancialContext artifact. Pass `period: "latest"` for the fixed 10-day latest window or `period: "YYYY-MM"` for a month page. The latest window is not caller-configurable. Months outside the covered range return an error. "What did I spend on food last month?"

  • search_operations

    Search the supported Warm operation catalog. Use this first to find the smallest matching operation. "What approved automation is available?"

  • describe_operation

    Describe one operation, including its input schema and risk. For write operations, pass the exact intended input to receive an approval with its ID, status, URL, and expiry. "Describe this approved operation"

  • invoke_operation

    Invoke one previously discovered Warm operation. Every write operation requires the approval_id returned for the exact same input by describe_operation. "Run this approved operation"

Ask Codex about your finances.

Examples show questions you can ask about your financial data.

  • Account Overview

    Show me all my bank accounts and their balances Codex uses get_financial_context to read accounts from status.accounts, including names, types, institutions, and balances.

  • Spending Analysis

    How much did I spend on restaurants last month? Codex uses get_transactions with period set to YYYY-MM or latest to review transactions, categorize spending, and give you totals with merchant breakdowns.

  • Subscription Audit

    What recurring charges am I paying? Codex uses get_financial_context to query your recurring charges and subscription totals alongside the rest of your financial context.

  • Net Worth Tracking

    What's my net worth trend over the past 6 months? Codex uses get_financial_context to query your net worth history and trend alongside the rest of your financial context.

Common questions Everything you need to know about Codex CLI and Warm.

How do I add Warm to Codex CLI?
Run npx -y @warmio/mcp@latest install to configure Codex CLI automatically. For a manual setup at ~/.codex/config.toml, set WARM_API_KEY and run npx -y @warmio/mcp@latest mcp. Reload Codex CLI and use the available API and automation tools.
What financial data can Codex access?
Codex can access organized financial data, including accounts at status.accounts, recurring charges, budgets, goals, and financial history, plus transactions for a period set to YYYY-MM or latest. Conversation history and app settings remain app-only.
