Kivgraph MCP Server for Codex

Kivgraph can serve as a local code intelligence MCP server for Codex. It exposes repository structure, symbols, references and bounded impact through the MCP configuration used by Codex.

Register Kivgraph with Codex

After installing Kivgraph, run:

kivgraph mcp install --scope user --target codex

This writes the kivgraph server entry to ~/.codex/config.toml. For a project-only configuration:

kivgraph mcp install --scope project --target codex

The project entry is written to .codex/config.toml in the current repository.

Build the repository graph

Register the repository and publish a full graph:

kivgraph init \
  --repository project=/absolute/path/to/project \
  --languages go,typescript,rust
kivgraph index --full

Codex can then use Kivgraph for semantic code navigation and questions about repository relationships, callers, dependencies and change impact.

Start with find_references for direct references or get_blast_radius before a risky change.
