How to give Codex access to VSCode Shift+Enter Julia eval?

Tooling VS Code
1

I’m currently using my own custom module that starts server and exposes socket to Codex Agent so it can call it and execute code in my VS Code julia session.

I wonder if there’s simpler way - given that Julia VS Code extension already does exactly that with Shift + Enter.

So, can AI Agent use Juila VS Code extension API instead of my custom server?

Thanks, but julia is very slow to startup, so I would like to avoid loading any large package.

My current NetEval is just one page script and it works, but ideally I would like to remove it too and just use already existing VS Code without adding any extra dependency.

Maybe I’m missing something, I don’t know what advantages MCP server has over simple REPL access.
