Louez for agents/Guide

Codex

Run your rental store from Codex

Codex adds Louez with one command and signs in with your Louez account. From the CLI or the editor extension, it imports catalogues, updates prices in bulk and reads your figures. Like ChatGPT, it works on a store you created in Louez.

  • CLI and editor extension
  • One command, OAuth sign-in
  • Works on an existing store
Connect step by stepCreate my shop

Connect Codex, step by step

One address for every client: https://app.louez.io/api/mcp. You sign in with your Louez account, then choose what Codex can reach.

  1. 1

    Add the server:

    codex mcp add louez --url https://app.louez.io/api/mcp
  2. 2

    Codex detects the OAuth sign-in and opens Louez in your browser: choose your stores, rights and tools.

  3. 3

    Or write it in ~/.codex/config.toml, then run codex mcp login louez to sign in:

    [mcp_servers.louez]
    url = "https://app.louez.io/api/mcp"

Steps checked on November 13, 2026 against Codex's documentation. Codex's documentation

What Codex can do in Louez

  • Read files in your project and create products and categories from them
  • Update names, descriptions, prices and seasons in bulk
  • Read bookings, customers, payments and figures
  • Change the store's settings, such as hours and closures

What it can't do, or not yet

  • Create a store: create yours in Louez first
  • See your Louez subscription or invoices, or use the AI photo tools
  • Create a booking or change its dates
  • Refund a customer
  • Write a free message to a customer: it drafts, you send
  • Change a team member's role, or change your Louez plan

Before a payment, a deletion, an answer to a booking request or a store going online, Louez answers with a preview. Louez does nothing until the request comes back with its one-time token, valid ten minutes. Your assistant is told to show you the preview and wait, but Louez cannot check that you answered: for an agent that must change nothing, choose read-only.

Requests to copy

Paste them as they are. Below each one, the Louez tools it calls and what happens.

  • Ask

    Add a high-season price from 1 July to 31 August on all my kayaks.

    products_listproducts_create_seasonal_pricing

    What happens

    Each kayak gets its season. A period that overlaps another one is refused.

  • Ask

    Read products.csv and create each product in the right category, with its daily price and its deposit.

    categories_createproducts_create

    What happens

    The categories and products are created one by one, each with its link in your Louez dashboard.

  • Ask

    Fix the typos in my product names and descriptions. Show me the changes before you save them.

    products_listproducts_update

    What happens

    It reads the products, shows you what it would change, then updates the ones you agree to.

  • Ask

    Which products brought in the least over the last 90 days?

    get_product_performance

    What happens

    It ranks your products by revenue over 90 days, with the units booked and the bookings behind each. Nothing changes.

  • Ask

    Close the shop from 24 to 26 December.

    settings_getsettings_update_business_hours

    What happens

    It reads the current closures, then saves them with the new one, as the list is replaced whole.

If something goes wrong

codex mcp add didn't open the sign-in.
Run codex mcp login louez: Codex opens Louez in your browser.
Codex won't create my store.
That's on purpose, as for ChatGPT: create your store in Louez, then let Codex carry on.
Codex doesn't see some tools.
Your connection shows the groups of tools you ticked. Add the others in Louez, under Settings > Integrations > MCP > Connected agents, with "Edit".

Questions about Louez and Codex

How do I connect Codex to Louez?

Run codex mcp add louez --url https://app.louez.io/api/mcp. Codex starts the OAuth sign-in and opens Louez in your browser. In ~/.codex/config.toml, the same server is [mcp_servers.louez] with its url, then codex mcp login louez.

Can Codex create my rental store?

No. Like ChatGPT, Codex manages an existing store but doesn't create stores, see your Louez billing or use the AI photo tools.

Do I need an API key for Codex?

No. Codex signs in with your Louez account through OAuth, with no key to copy.

Codex or ChatGPT?

The same Louez tools and the same limits. Codex works from the terminal or the editor, next to your files; ChatGPT, in a conversation on Business, Enterprise or Edu.
