Easily create reusable automation tools from casual browser actions using Apify Agent
Easily create reusable automation tools from casual browser actions using Apify Agent. That is what the codify mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.

codify-mcp on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.
The server publishes 1 tool. What each one is for:
Structure — bin/ start.js # Executable entry point (bin field in package.json)Configuration is passed through the environment: APIFY_TOKEN. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
This sits in the browser automation group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Codify's toolset — Structure — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by cybairfly; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
