How to remove a watermark from a video with Codex MCP and Medux

Use Codex and Medux through MCP to remove a visible watermark from an uploaded video. This guide covers input preparation, the approval gate, task monitoring, and a concrete output check.

Codex-specific workflow

Run Remove a Watermark from Video as a Codex MCP task

Use the active workspace as the source of truth. Ask Codex to identify the source video and the watermark region or reference, select medux_video_remove_watermark, and keep the Medux task ID and returned output with the rest of the project. Naming the input roles and the expected result prevents an agent from guessing which file should be used where.

Codex prompt pattern

In this workspace, use medux_video_remove_watermark through Medux MCP to remove a watermark from a video.
First inspect and identify the source video and the watermark region or reference.
Show me the exact tool arguments before execution.
After the task completes, return the cleaned video and verify that the watermark is removed through the required frames without damaging unrelated regions.

Approval gate

Before approving the call, compare the selected tool, file or asset IDs, ordering, timing, and output settings with the request. If a local filename was mapped to an uploaded Medux file ID, keep that mapping visible so it can be audited later.

Result verification

Let Codex monitor an asynchronous task until it reaches a terminal state, then save or report the cleaned video. The final check is explicit: confirm that the watermark is removed through the required frames without damaging unrelated regions.

What this tutorial does

Medux operation

Create a video processing task that removes a watermark from an uploaded video.

Agent workflow

Codex selects medux_video_remove_watermark, presents the arguments for review, calls Medux, and reports the response.

Before you start

Authentication

  • Authentication is required via Authorization header.

Preconditions

  • Requires a previously uploaded video asset.
  • Requires an existing video file id.

Prompt Codex

Start with a clear instruction that names the Medux operation and the intended inputs.

Remove the watermark from the uploaded source video {file id}. If the watermark area is known, pass region {x, y, width, height}.

Request fields to review

Confirm these values before approving the MCP tool call. The linked API page remains the source of truth for current limits and response semantics.

Step-by-step workflow

01

Connect Medux MCP to Codex

Add the Medux remote MCP endpoint to Codex, provide an authorized credential, and confirm that the medux_video_remove_watermark tool is available.

02

Prepare the required inputs

Prepare the source files, asset IDs, text, or settings required by the operation. Upload local media first when the tool requests file IDs.

03

Ask Codex to run Create Video Watermark Removal

Use one direct instruction with the intended values. Codex should select the Medux tool and show the proposed arguments before execution.

04

Review and approve the tool call

Check that the tool is medux_video_remove_watermark and that each file ID, task ID, option, and output setting matches your request before approving it.

05

Check the Medux response

If Medux returns an asynchronous task, let the agent monitor it until completion; otherwise review the immediate response and save any result identifiers or output URLs.
