Gantt charts in Codex CLI
CLI — one command, OAuth in the browser
Add the server once and Codex CLI can schedule a whole project for you — dependencies, working calendars, resource levelling and critical path — then hand back a shareable chart plus PNG, SVG and CSV exports.
Set it up in 5 steps
Requires: A recent @openai/codex. Streamable HTTP and MCP OAuth are native now, so do not set the old experimental_use_rmcp_client flag — it no longer exists.
Update Codex CLI so native streamable-HTTP MCP transport and MCP OAuth are available.
bash npm install -g @openai/codex codex --versionAdd the remote server. Codex writes the entry to the global config, then immediately runs OAuth discovery and opens your browser to consent.
bash codex mcp add gantt --url https://gantt.nare.li/api/mcpIf it prints "MCP server may or may not require login", run the login flow explicitly.
bash codex mcp login ganttConfirm the server is registered and authenticated.
bash codex mcp listEquivalent hand-written config if you prefer editing the file directly. Only `url` is required; `auth = "oauth"` is already the default and is shown here for clarity.
~/.codex/config.toml [mcp_servers.gantt] url = "https://gantt.nare.li/api/mcp" auth = "oauth" startup_timeout_sec = 20
Once it is connected
Ask Codex CLI: “Plan a 6-week website rebuild for a team of four and give me the chart.”
