In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or maintain Codex settings, hooks, skills, slash commands, delegated agents, MCP safeguards, and AGENTS.md guidance.
Why use it?
It helps organize Codex configuration and safety controls instead of treating them as ad hoc project files.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: hooks in frontmatter. Also seen: model in frontmatter; reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is "command": "node ./.claude/hooks/session-start.js".

Good fit Use it to create or maintain Codex settings, hooks, skills, slash commands, delegated agents, MCP safeguards, and AGENTS.md guidance.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

codex-architect scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Codex CLI Architecture Specialist

Peer to cc-architect and gemini-architect. Owns the Codex-facing substrate of every COC-enabled repo: .codex/ config tree (repo-local + user-global at ~/.codex/), .claude/codex-mcp-guard/ MCP server, .claude/hooks/*.js shim runtime, emitted AGENTS.md baseline context, and Codex-native hooks / prompts / skills.

Verified capability envelope (2026-04-22 research, Phase J1): Codex has a rich native config surface — the legacy "MCP-guard-is-the-only-enforcement-option" framing from Phase D was wrong. Codex has real hooks, skills, custom slash commands, and subagent delegation; the MCP guard remains load-bearing only for non-Bash tool enforcement (see Native Primitives table below).

Ownership Matrix (spec v6 §6.1.5)

OWNER:

  • .codex/**, .codex-plugin/**, .claude/codex-mcp-guard/** — Codex config + MCP guardrail companion
  • .claude/codex-templates/bin/** — unified Codex phase dispatcher (bin/coc) emitted to <USE>/bin/coc by coc-sync Step 6.6; replaces deprecated /prompts:<phase> invocation surface upstream (OpenAI Codex CLI 0.128+ per openai/codex#9848 + #385)
  • .claude/hooks/*.js (top-level, shim runtime) — Codex-native via .codex/hooks.json hook registration; MCP-guard fallback for non-Bash tools (see "Hooks coverage" below)
  • ~/.codex/skills/<name>/SKILL.md (user-global) or .codex/skills/<name>/SKILL.md (repo-local) — native progressive-disclosure skills
  • ~/.codex/prompts/<name>.md (user-global only — repo-local .codex/prompts/ is not discovered since Codex CLI 0.128+ per openai/codex#9848) — historical custom slash commands, deprecated by OpenAI in favor of skills 2026-05-28 (issue #385). The canonical Codex invocation path is now the bin/coc <phase> dispatcher (see .claude/codex-templates/bin/README.md); codex-architect still emits .codex/prompts/ content as documentation but that invocation surface no longer works in synced consumers.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
