Fix the Rust WebSocket bug with Codex and GitLab MCP
Key Takeaways
Fix a Rust WebSocket bug with Codex and GitLab MCP
Original Description
Local code context is useful. Issue context is better.
In this walkthrough, we connect Codex to the GitLab MCP server, fetch the GitLab issue directly, and fix the same Rust WebSocket bug with the actual requirements, notes, and merge request workflow in view.
You will see:
- how to add and authenticate the GitLab MCP server in Codex
- how Codex uses GitLab issue context instead of relying only on local files
- how to create a merge request through MCP tools
