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 assumes your Codex CLI 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.
