Bannerbear MCP Integration for Codex
Connect Bannerbear to Codex through the local KosmoKrator MCP gateway with scoped tools, credentials, and write policy.
Connect Bannerbear to Codex
Use KosmoKrator as a local MCP proxy for Codex so coding sessions can reach selected integrations with explicit write policy.
Register kosmo mcp:serve as a local stdio server and choose the integration allowlist. The gateway is local, scoped to this integration, and starts with
--write=deny so Codex can inspect read-capable tools without receiving write access by default.
Bannerbear MCP Config for Codex
Keep write access denied or ask-based unless the workspace is trusted.

kosmokrator mcp:serve --integration=bannerbear --write=deny Why Use KosmoKrator Here
Expose only Bannerbear instead of a broad multi-service tool list.
Reuse credentials already configured for the KosmoKrator CLI and Lua runtime.
Start read-only, then opt into ask or allow for trusted workspaces.
Bannerbear Tools Visible to Codex
Codex sees stable MCP tool names generated from the Bannerbear integration catalog.
| MCP tool | Source function | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
integration__bannerbear__bannerbear_create_image | bannerbear.bannerbear_create_image | Write | Generate an image from a Bannerbear template. Provide a template ID and an array of modifications to customize text, images, colors, and other layers. The image is generated asynchronously — use get_image to check status and retrieve the final URL. |
integration__bannerbear__bannerbear_get_image | bannerbear.bannerbear_get_image | Read | Retrieve the status and download URL of a previously created Bannerbear image. Images are generated asynchronously, so poll this endpoint until status is "completed". |
integration__bannerbear__bannerbear_list_images | bannerbear.bannerbear_list_images | Read | List previously created Bannerbear images. Returns image UIDs, statuses, and download URLs. Supports pagination via page and limit parameters. |
integration__bannerbear__bannerbear_list_collections | bannerbear.bannerbear_list_collections | Read | List Bannerbear collections. Collections are groups of images generated from a single template with different data. Supports pagination via page and limit parameters. |
integration__bannerbear__bannerbear_create_video | bannerbear.bannerbear_create_video | Write | Generate a video from a Bannerbear template. Provide a template ID and an array of modifications per scene. The video is generated asynchronously — use get_video to check status and retrieve the final URL. |
integration__bannerbear__bannerbear_get_video | bannerbear.bannerbear_get_video | Read | Retrieve the status and download URL of a previously created Bannerbear video. Videos are generated asynchronously, so poll this endpoint until status is "completed". |
integration__bannerbear__bannerbear_list_templates | bannerbear.bannerbear_list_templates | Read | List all available Bannerbear templates. Returns template UIDs, names, dimensions, and preview URLs. Use a template UID with create_image or create_video. |
integration__bannerbear__bannerbear_get_template | bannerbear.bannerbear_get_template | Read | Get details for a specific Bannerbear template, including all available modification layers (text, image, color, etc.). Use this to discover which layer names to use when calling create_image or create_video. |
integration__bannerbear__bannerbear_create_animated_gif | bannerbear.bannerbear_create_animated_gif | Write | Generate an animated GIF from a Bannerbear template. Provide a template ID and an array of modifications per frame. The GIF is generated asynchronously — use get_image with the returned ID to check status. |
