Generate or edit raster images when the task benefits from AI-created bitmap visuals such as photos, illustrations, textures, sprites, mockups, or transparent-background cutouts. Use when Codex should create a brand-new image, transform an existing image, or derive visual variants from references, and the output…
Use when the user asks how to build with OpenAI products or APIs, asks about Codex itself or choosing Codex surfaces, needs up-to-date official documentation with citations, help choosing the latest model for a use case, or model upgrade and prompt-upgrade guidance; use OpenAI docs MCP tools for non-Codex docs…
Create and scaffold plugin directories for Codex with a required .codex-plugin/plugin.json, optional plugin folders/files, valid manifest defaults, and personal-marketplace entries by default. Use when Codex needs to create a new personal plugin, add optional plugin structure, generate or update marketplace entries…
Guide for creating effective skills. This skill should be used when users want to create a new skill (or update an existing skill) that extends Codex's capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, or tool integrations.
Install Codex skills into $CODEXHOME/skills from a curated list or a GitHub repo path. Use when a user asks to list installable skills, install a curated skill, or install a skill from another repo (including private repos).
Push the LLM to reconsider, refine, and improve its recent output. Use when user asks for deeper critique or mentions a known deeper critique method, e.g. socratic, first principles, pre-mortem, red team.
Autopilot orchestrator who runs target BMAD workflows unattended, delegates to workers, and answers HITL questions per a policy file. Use when the user asks to talk to Otto, says "run X on autopilot", or invokes /bmad-bmp-agent-otto.
Hand a target BMAD workflow to Otto for unattended execution. Otto plans, delegates to workers, answers HITL questions per a policy file, and pauses cleanly when confidence dips below floor or category is in alwayspause. Use when the user says "run X on autopilot", "do this unattended", or invokes /bmad-bmp-autopilot.

LLM-assisted human-in-the-loop review. Make sense of a change, focus attention where it matters, test. Use when the user says "checkpoint", "human review", or "walk me through this change".
Review code changes adversarially using parallel review layers (Blind Hunter, Edge Case Hunter, Acceptance Auditor) with structured triage into actionable categories. Use when the user says "run code review" or "review this code".
Create architecture solution design decisions for AI agent consistency. Use when the user says "lets create architecture" or "create technical architecture" or "create a solution design".
