Add Rankhog to Codex

About a minute. You need a Rankhog sign-in, which is free.

  1. Add Rankhog.

    codex mcp add rankhog --url https://api.rankhog.com/mcp
  2. Sign in.

    Your browser opens Rankhog's sign-in.

    codex mcp login rankhog
  3. Sign in to Rankhog and allow it.

    Pick your organization and what your AI may do. Every box starts ticked, sending included. Untick any you'd rather keep for yourself.

  4. Check it and ask.

    Type /mcp in Codex to see rankhog listed, then try the prompts below.

Where it lives

~/.codex/config.toml. The CLI, the IDE extension and the ChatGPT desktop app share it.

[mcp_servers.rankhog]
url = "https://api.rankhog.com/mcp"

Plans and limits

  • Codex Cloud tasks can't use custom servers. Use the CLI, the IDE extension or the desktop app.
  • In the ChatGPT desktop app, add Rankhog under Settings, MCP servers, then restart it.

Then, how it goes

  • Add Rankhog to your AI and sign in. Signing up for Rankhog is free.
  • Ask your AI to set up your product. It builds your free Reddit SEO report right in the chat.
  • Start the 7-day trial from the link it gives you. A card is needed.
  • Connect Rankhog Desktop and a Reddit account. Nothing is sent before that.
Use an API key instead

For scripts and CI. Put your Rankhog API key in RANKHOG_API_KEY first. A key can't set up a new product; sign in for that.

codex mcp add rankhog --url https://api.rankhog.com/mcp --bearer-token-env-var RANKHOG_API_KEY

Copy this prompt

Paste one into Codex. Neither one sends anything to Reddit.

Once you have a plan

You're connected to Rankhog, my Reddit marketing tool.
1. Tell me my products, my Reddit accounts and my credits.
2. Show today's best Reddit opportunities for my product, best first.
3. For the top 3, show me the thread, why it fits, and the draft reply. Tell me before you spend credits on a new draft.
4. Don't send or schedule anything until I pick which ones.
If you can't send from this connection, give me the link where I approve it in Rankhog.

Things to ask Codex

Each one ends the same way, so Codex shows you the work before anything goes out.

Read the last few commits in this repo and tell me what we shipped. Then find Reddit threads where people ask for it and draft replies. Show me before anything is sent.

Your AI reads the repo, Rankhog finds the threads and drafts replies that mention the feature only where it helps.

Find today's best Reddit threads for my product and draft replies for the top three. Show me before anything is sent.

Rankhog brings the best threads Radar found, writes each reply in the subreddit's style and checks it against the rules.

Which subreddits fit my product, and what do their rules say about mentioning it? Show me before anything is sent.

Rankhog reads each subreddit's rules and the guide it keeps for posting there.

How are my Reddit accounts doing, and what did each one send this week? Show me before anything is sent.

Rankhog lists each account, its karma, and what it sent.

Several Reddit accounts. One AI. Nothing goes out unchecked.

Your AI works with the Reddit accounts your team owns, one voice per thread. Each account can have its own Rankhog address, an internet address only that account uses inside Rankhog, so it always signs in from the same place.

Every account is paced: by default about five comments a day, at least 30 minutes apart, at a slightly random time. Each send tells your AI how pacing applied. Your AI can choose to skip pacing for a send, and that choice and its risk are yours.

You choose what your AI may do when you connect. Every box starts ticked, sending included, and your AI sends only when you ask it to. Untick Send and you approve each reply in Rankhog instead. Only you can turn on autopilot, in the app.

Your accounts never upvote each other, and your AI can't vote at all.

No tool can promise an account never gets flagged. This is how Rankhog keeps the risk low.

Run codex mcp login rankhog --no-browser, open the link it prints, then paste back the address your browser lands on.

rankhog doesn't show up in /mcp.

Restart Codex after adding Rankhog. Codex loads its servers when it starts.

By Anthony Riera, founder and operator of Rankhog.

Rankhog's MCP runs the same Radar, drafting, rules checks and pacing as the app. Codex gets the same answers you would.

Questions

Rankhog and Codex questions

Do I need ChatGPT Business to use Rankhog in Codex?

No. Codex comes with Plus and Pro too, and custom servers work there.

Can I use it in my editor?

Yes. The Codex IDE extension reads the same config, so Rankhog shows up there too.

Can Codex Cloud use Rankhog?

Not yet. Codex Cloud has no setting for custom servers.

Can Codex send replies for me?

Yes, when you ask it to, and always inside each account's pacing. Send starts ticked when you connect. Untick it and Codex gives you the link to approve each reply in Rankhog instead.

Does Rankhog post to Reddit without asking me?

Only when you ask it to. Send starts ticked when you connect, so your AI can send a reply you picked, inside each account's pacing. Untick it and your AI gives you a link to approve each reply in Rankhog instead. Only you can turn on autopilot, in the app.

What does it cost?

Adding Rankhog and your Reddit SEO report are free. Finding threads and drafting replies need a plan: $99/month after a 7-day trial, with 100 credits a month. A new draft costs 1 credit and sending is free. Your AI can't buy credits, and it can spend at most 100 a month unless you raise that limit.

How do I disconnect my AI?

In Rankhog, open your organization settings and find Connected apps. Disconnecting stops the app at once, and it can't sign itself back in.
