Why connect Salesforce to Codex?

Codex runs in your terminal, its IDE extension and scripts, so what it finds once can be rerun with codex exec instead of redone by hand. Connected through Lemonado, it reads your Salesforce leads, opportunities, campaigns and accounts, so it can work out cost per opportunity by channel with today's numbers.

  • All your Salesforce data

    Leads and their lead source, ready to ask about.

  • Always today's numbers

    Opportunities, stages, amounts and close dates, synced from Salesforce automatically, so answers use today's numbers.

  • Connect all your tools

    Questions like "What does an opportunity cost?" use Salesforce and HubSpot, LinkedIn Ads at once.

    Ask Codex about Salesforce

    Run codex mcp list, or /mcp inside Codex, to see the server and its tools. Try "Pull last week's Salesforce numbers, save them to data/salesforce-weekly.csv and give me the codex exec command to refresh it." Or ask: "How long from lead to opportunity?" or "Does the webhook map every field?"

What can Codex do with Salesforce?

Codex reads your Salesforce data from your terminal and turns one-off questions into commands you can rerun with codex exec.

Pull last week's Salesforce numbers, save them to data/salesforce-weekly.csv and give me the codex exec command to refresh it.

Saved data/salesforce-weekly.csv. Run the same prompt with codex exec in a scheduled job and the file refreshes with each week's numbers.
