Connxio CLI

Connxio CLI provides the connxio command and an MCP server for Connxio management APIs.

The current implementation focuses on MCP usage through:

connxio mcp serve

Prerequisites

• Node.js 24 or newer
• Connxio OAuth client credentials
• A Connxio subscription-scoped API key for each subscription context you want to use

Install

Install the CLI globally from npm:

npm i -g @connxio/cli

Verify installation:

connxio --help

Configure OAuth

connxio auth configure

You will be prompted for:

• OAuth client id
• OAuth scope, defaulting to api://connxio/.default
• OAuth client secret

Check status:

connxio auth status

Clear OAuth configuration:

connxio auth clear

You can also configure OAuth with environment variables:

CONNXIO_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID="<client-id>"
CONNXIO_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET="<client-secret>"
CONNXIO_OAUTH_TOKEN_URL="https://api.connxio.com/oauth/token"
CONNXIO_OAUTH_SCOPE="api://connxio/.default"

CONNXIO_OAUTH_TOKEN_URL and CONNXIO_OAUTH_SCOPE are optional overrides.

Configure Contexts

A context represents one Connxio subscription. Connxio API keys are subscription-scoped, so add one context for each subscription you want to use.

connxio context add

The CLI calls /v2/subscriptions/current with the provided API key and stores the subscription/company metadata locally. API keys are stored through the credential abstraction, not in config.json.

List contexts:

connxio context list

Set a default context:

connxio context default <context-id>

Remove a context:

connxio context remove <context-id>

Register With VS Code

VS Code 1.99+ supports MCP servers natively via GitHub Copilot agent mode.

Option 1 — user settings (all projects)

Open the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P/Cmd+Shift+P) and select MCP: Add server.

Select stdio transport, connxio mcp serve as the command, and set the name to connxio. This will create a user-level MCP server registration that is available in all projects.

Alternatively, edit the user level mcp.json config file directly. Open the command palette and select MCP: Open User Configuration, then add:

{
  "servers": {
    "connxio": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "connxio",
      "args": ["mcp", "serve"]
    }
  }
}

Option 2 — workspace settings (this project only)

Create .vscode/mcp.json in your project root:

{
  "servers": {
    "connxio": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "connxio",
      "args": ["mcp", "serve"]
    }
  }
}

The Connxio MCP server will now be available when you open this project in VS Code.

If you need to pass environment variables (e.g. for OAuth or a custom API base URL), add an env block:

{
  "servers": {
    "connxio": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "connxio",
      "args": ["mcp", "serve"],
      "env": {
        "CONNXIO_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID": "<client-id>",
        "CONNXIO_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET": "<client-secret>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Do not commit files containing OAuth client secrets to source control.

Register With Claude Code

Register the installed MCP server:

claude mcp add --transport stdio connxio -- connxio mcp serve

To register the MCP server at user level (available in all projects), add --scope user:

claude mcp add --scope user --transport stdio connxio -- connxio mcp serve

Verify registration:

claude mcp list

If you need to replace an existing registration:

claude mcp remove connxio
claude mcp add --transport stdio connxio -- connxio mcp serve

API Base URL

The default API base URL is:

https://api.connxio.com

Override it per context:

connxio context add --base-url http://localhost:5119/api

Or with an environment variable:

CONNXIO_API_BASE_URL="http://localhost:5119/api"

For localhost development with self-signed HTTPS certificates, the CLI automatically allows insecure TLS for localhost URLs. For other local development endpoints, use:

CONNXIO_INSECURE_TLS=true

Do not use insecure TLS settings in production.

Run Diagnostics

connxio mcp doctor

For HTTP troubleshooting, enable redacted request diagnostics:

CONNXIO_DEBUG_HTTP=true connxio mcp doctor

MCP Tools

The MCP server exposes non-message Connxio v2 management operations.

Context and subscription tools:

• list_contexts
• get_current_context
• list_subscriptions
• get_current_subscription

Integration tools:

• list_integrations
• get_integration
• create_integration
• create_integration_no_validation
• update_integration
• delete_integration

Code component tools:

• list_code_components
• get_code_component
• get_code_component_versions
• create_code_component
• deprecate_code_component
• rename_code_component
• delete_code_component

Environment variable tools:

• list_environment_variables
• get_environment_variable
• create_environment_variable
• delete_environment_variable

Security configuration tools:

• list_security_configs
• get_security_config
• create_security_config
• delete_security_config

Write tools require contextId. Destructive tools require contextId and confirm: true.

/messages operations are intentionally not exposed yet.

Local Config Files

Non-secret config is stored in:

• macOS/Linux: ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/connxio/config.json
• Windows: %APPDATA%\connxio\config.json

Secrets are stored through the CLI credential abstraction. The CLI now uses the OS keyring when available and falls back to ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/connxio/credentials.json on macOS/Linux or %APPDATA%\connxio\credentials.json on Windows when secure storage is unavailable.

If you already have secrets in credentials.json, the CLI migrates them into the OS keyring lazily as they are used and removes the legacy file entries after a successful migration.
