OpenAI Codex just leveled up. It now hooks into Docker’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) Toolkit, which means it can tap directly into 200+ infrastructure tools—like Neo4j graph databases—as if they were built-in features.
With MCP, Codex doesn’t just code. It runs containers, spins up data models, eats semi-structured data for lunch, and fires off Cypher queries like a local. All through a secure, curated interface.
System shift: AI dev tools aren’t only writing code. They’re also wiring up real infrastructure - and they know exactly what’s running under the hood.
