MCP servers don’t start in Codex (Xcode 26.3)
I’m trying to use MCP servers with Xcode 26.3 Coding Intelligence (Codex agent). With a project-scoped config file at /.codex/config.toml, MCP servers are not reliably loaded. /.codex/config.toml Example: [mcp_servers.Notion] url = "https://mcp.notion.com/mcp" enabled = true [mcp_servers.XcodeBuildMCP] command = "/bin/zsh" args = ["-lc", "/opt/homebrew/bin/npx -y xcodebuildmcp@beta mcp"] enabled = true tool_timeout_sec = 10000 Expected: Xcode consistently loads MCP servers defined in /.codex/config.toml across restarts. Actual: Xcode often only exposes xcode-tools. In some sessions MCP servers appear, but after restarting Xcode they may disappear. The global file at ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/codex/config.toml also seems managed/rewritten by Xcode and isn’t reliable for custom MCP servers. Questions Is /.codex/config.toml the official/supported way to configure MCP servers for Codex in Xcode right now? Are there any requirements for Xcode to load it (e.g. workspace must be Trusted, open .xcworkspace vs .xcodeproj, full restart/force quit, etc.)? Is there any logging/diagnostics to understand why the MCP server is not starting or not being picked up?

How does Xcode26.3 Agent know about the API Documentation for non Apple Intelligence
Lets say I use a SDK that has some custom components .ie. Liquid Glass but with neon background (just for fun) . This SDK has comprehensive API Docs . Currently Xcode provides DocumentationSearch mcp tool only for Apple APIs . Is there a way to enhance api search beyond Apple SDKs , for examples seeing the definitions in xcframwork. If not can Xcode connect to local/hosted mcp-servers . Or do these have to be modified in Claude settings.

Does ClaudeAgentConfig support CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK
Under Xcode -> Settings -> Intelligence -> Account it states "Not Signed In" An anthropic api key or claude.ai account is N/A Is pretty sparse in actual details. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/setting-up-coding-intelligence Related: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/814595
