Why use Composio?

Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:

  • CodeAct: A dedicated workbench that allows GPT to write its code to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
  • Large tool responses: Handle them to minimise context rot.
  • Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 1000+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

How to install Check Cherry MCP in Codex

Run the setup command

Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex.

Terminal

It will initiate the authentication in a browser window, authorize Codex to access your Composio account.

Composio authentication page

(Optional) Authenticate with OAuth

To authenticate manually, run the login command to open a browser window and authorize Codex to access your Composio account.

Verify the connection

Run codex mcp list to confirm Composio appears as a registered MCP server.

bash
codex mcp list

Codex App

Codex App follows the same approach as VS Code.

  1. Click ⚙️ on the bottom left → MCP Servers → + Add servers → Streamable HTTP:
  2. Fill the header and Key fields with { "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }.
  3. The Key is the Composio API key, that you can find on dashboard.composio.dev
  4. Click on Authenticate and authorize Codex to your Composio account and you're all set.

What is the Check Cherry MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Check Cherry MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Check Cherry account. It provides structured and secure access to your leads, bookings, appointments, offerings, payments, expenses, questionnaires, and business reports, so your agent can manage schedules, review clients and events, track finances, update questionnaires, and check availability on your behalf.

  • Lead and booking management: Have your agent search leads, review proposals and confirmed bookings, and find package bookings by event date.
  • Appointments and availability: Let the agent check package availability, find open appointment times, schedule staff appointments for guests, and remove appointments from the active calendar.
  • Payments and expense tracking: Direct your agent to review event payments and refunds, record business expenses, update expense details, classify costs, or remove outdated expense records.
  • Questionnaire coordination: Instruct your agent to attach questionnaire templates to bookings, review questions and responses, update answers, and remove questionnaires when needed.
  • Offerings and business reporting: Have your agent review services, package groups, packages, and add-ons, then retrieve reports covering bookings, leads, payments, proposals, or projected revenue.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Check Cherry MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Check Cherry tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Check Cherry and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

Yes, you can. Codex fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Check Cherry tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Check Cherry scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Check Cherry data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
