Connect aNewStream to ChatGPT Codex
A fleet of agents. One tracks what they build.
Published: 2026-02-04
TL;DR
Codex is OpenAI's coding agent app. Run multiple agents in parallel across projects. Connect aNewStream via MCP and one agent can track what all the others build. Fleet of coders + automatic changelog = ship fast with receipts.
Why Codex?
Codex isn't just an AI assistant. It's a command center for multiple coding agents.
You can:
- Run agents in parallel across different projects
- Coordinate teams of agents across the full software lifecycle
- Use "skills" to extend beyond code generation
With aNewStream, add product tracking to the mix:
- One agent writes code
- Another tracks what shipped
- Automatic changelog across all projects
Setup
Step 1: Open Codex Settings
In the Codex desktop app, go to Settings > MCP
Step 2: Add aNewStream
Add the MCP server:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Name | aNewStream |
| URL | https://api.anewstream.com/mcp |
| Auth | OAuth (recommended) or API Key |
Step 3: Connect
Complete OAuth flow or enter your API key. Codex connects to aNewStream.
Multi-Agent Workflow
Here's where Codex shines:
Project 1: Building auth system
Agent 1: [Working on OAuth implementation]
Project 2: Building payment flow
Agent 2: [Working on Stripe integration]
Product tracking (via aNewStream):
You: Log MYAPP-001 update: Agent 1 completed OAuth with Google and GitHub
Codex: Update #5 pushed
You: Log MYAPP-001 update: Agent 2 completed Stripe payment flow
Codex: Update #6 pushed
End of day:
You: What did my agents ship today?
Codex: [Queries aNewStream changelog]
MYAPP-001 updates today:
• OAuth with Google and GitHub
• Stripe payment flow
Parallel Project Tracking
| Agent | Working On | Logged To |
|---|---|---|
| Agent 1 | Frontend redesign | MYAPP-001 |
| Agent 2 | API optimization | MYAPP-001 |
| Agent 3 | Mobile app | MOBILEAPP-001 |
All updates go to aNewStream. Query any project anytime.
Skills + aNewStream
Codex "skills" extend what agents can do. With aNewStream connected:
| Skill | aNewStream Integration |
|---|---|
| Code generation | Log features as they're built |
| Bug fixing | Track fixes in changelog |
| Research | Use WIRE agent for competitor intel |
| Documentation | GENERATE agent writes release notes |
Example: Full Day with Codex
Morning:
You: Start Agent 1 on user dashboard for TASKAPP
You: Start Agent 2 on API rate limiting for TASKAPP
You: Create product TASKAPP in aNewStream
Codex: Product "TASKAPP" created
[Agents work in parallel]
Afternoon:
You: Agent 1 finished. Log TASKAPP-001: added user dashboard with activity metrics
Codex: Update #1 pushed
You: Agent 2 finished. Log TASKAPP-001: added API rate limiting - 100 req/min
Codex: Update #2 pushed
End of day:
You: Generate changelog for TASKAPP
Codex: [GENERATE agent creates]
## TASKAPP Changelog - Feb 4, 2026
### New Features
- User dashboard with activity metrics
- API rate limiting (100 requests/minute)
Why This Matters
Traditional development: One person, sequential work, easy to track.
Agent-powered development: Multiple agents, parallel work, hard to track.
aNewStream solves the tracking problem. When you have 5 agents shipping code simultaneously, you need a single source of truth for what actually shipped.
Included with ChatGPT
For a limited time, Codex is included with:
- ChatGPT Free and Go plans
- ChatGPT Plus, Pro (doubled rate limits)
- Business, Enterprise, Edu plans
aNewStream's MCP works with all tiers.
