Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.01236 | $0.01236 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00618 | $0.00618 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00247 | $0.00247 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00124 | $0.00124 |
Grade A, and why
codex-settings AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 2d 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.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 84 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Repository Guidelines
Repository Structure
config.tomlis the shared Codex CLI configuration and points to the localcopilot-gatewayprovider atlocalhost:4141.- Root-level
*.config.tomlfiles are optional Codex Profiles (chatgpt,azure,github-copilot, andopenrouter). Keep the<name>.config.tomlnaming required bycodex --profile <name>. skills/<name>/SKILL.mdcontains reusable workflows. Put deterministic helpers inscripts/, detailed references inreferences/, UI metadata inagents/openai.yaml, and offline regression tests intests/..codex-plugin/plugin.jsonpackages the existing rootskills/tree as thecodex-settingsPlugin without duplicating it..agents/plugins/marketplace.jsonexposes the repository root as the Plugin source.skills/github-fix-issue/andskills/github-review-pr/replace the former GitHub Custom Prompts. Do not recreate duplicate workflows underprompts/.litellm_config.yamlis only for the optional GitHub Copilot through LiteLLM profile. It is not the backend used by the defaultconfig.toml.
Validation Commands
Run checks that match the files you changed. The standard offline suite is:
# TOML syntax
python3 -c 'import pathlib, tomllib; [tomllib.loads(p.read_text()) for p in pathlib.Path(".").glob("**/*.toml")]'
# Plugin package and marketplace
python3 -m json.tool .codex-plugin/plugin.json >/dev/null
python3 -m json.tool .agents/plugins/marketplace.json >/dev/null
python3 ~/.codex/skills/.system/plugin-creator/scripts/validate_plugin.py .
# Skill structure

python3 -m compileall -q skills

What this file has done since we first saw it
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.
