Create an Info Icon with Codex CLI

This walkthrough uses the exact prompt from the IconVectors MCP documentation to generate a simple "info" icon with Codex CLI. It works on both Windows and macOS as long as your Codex MCP setup already works. If not, first read Using IconVectors with Codex CLI.

Exact prompt

Using IconVectors MCP commands, create a new 32x32 document named "info icon", draw a blue circle
in the center, use a color from the "Axialis Colors" palette, draw a large info "i" white letter
using 2px round corners, center vertically and horizontally the "info" group, and export it as SVG.

What this prompt asks Codex to do

• Create a new 32x32 document.
• Pick a blue swatch from the Axialis Colors palette.
• Draw the circle and the "i" letter as real vector geometry.
• Use round corners for the letter, center the info group, and export the result as SVG.

Tips

• Make sure the Axialis Colors palette is available in the current environment.
• If Codex cannot find the MCP server, verify the configuration in ~/.codex/config.toml and check that IconVectors is already running.
• After the icon is created, you can also ask Codex for additional outputs such as SwiftUI, VectorDrawable, or WPF Geometry.
