What is DesignerBox for Codex?
DesignerBox is AI creative production for brands and agencies: images, ads and video that keep your brand. The Model Context Protocol connects it to OpenAI Codex. You run the same templates, workflows and apps with plain-language prompts, where you already work. Connect once. New models and tools appear with no change on your side.
Generate in your workflow
Ask Codex for a product shot, an ad, or a try-on and it renders the result on your DesignerBox account, inline, with no context switch.
Jobs with several steps
Run several steps in a row from Codex: read a brief, make versions, remove backgrounds and save the results in your Assets.
Sets of on-brand images
Produce a set of catalogue images, angle variations or ad sizes, styled to your brand profile.
See it in Codex
Describe the asset in one message. DesignerBox picks the right model, generates on your account, and hands the result back to Codex.
Done. Four studio shots, saved in your Assets.
Done. An 8-second launch clip with sound, saved in your Assets.
