What is superpowers-cc-to-codex CLAUDE.md?

A Claude Code plugin that delegates selected work to the Codex command-line tool, while Claude remains in control. Its instructions cover setup, development, testing, logging, and validation.

Use it to install or develop the plugin, run tests and diagnostic checks, validate schemas and plugin files, check upstream changes, and optionally record sanitized Codex and server events. It requires Node.js 22 or newer, Git, Claude Code, and an authenticated Codex CLI.

It separates planning and control in Claude from bounded execution in Codex. The included checks help find installation, schema, plugin-structure, and upstream-drift problems.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.01692	$0.01692
Opus 5	$0.00846	$0.00846
Sonnet 5	$0.00338	$0.00338
Haiku 4.5	$0.00169	$0.00169

Security

Grade A, and why

superpowers-cc-to-codex CLAUDE.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 8d 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.

Overview

Claude Code plugin that forks Superpowers workflows for Codex-backed execution. Claude stays in control of the main thread; bounded work is delegated to the public codex CLI.

Setup

# Plugin users
/plugin marketplace add mzored/superpowers-cc-to-codex
/plugin install superpowers-cc-to-codex@superpowers-cc-to-codex

# Development
git clone https://github.com/mzored/superpowers-cc-to-codex
npm test
npm run doctor

Requirements

Node.js 22+
codex CLI installed and authenticated (minimum version 0.111.0)
git
Claude Code with plugin marketplace support

Commands

npm test                    # Node.js native test runner (node --test)
npm run doctor              # Validate plugin installation and required CLIs
npm run check:upstream      # Check upstream Superpowers fork drift
npm run validate:plugin     # Validate Claude Code plugin structure
npm run validate:schemas       # Validate schema registry and prompt/schema references

Set SUPERPOWERS_CODEX_LOG_FILE=/absolute/path/codex-events.jsonl to append sanitized Codex and MCP lifecycle events; run npm run doctor -- --verbose to summarize recent events.

Architecture

Claude is the controller. Codex is a bounded worker.

User ↔ Claude (controller)
         ├─ skills/         → SKILL.md workflow + prompts/ sent to Codex
         ├─ scripts/mcp-server.mjs → MCP server (only transport, registered in plugin.json)
         ├─ scripts/        → codex-run.mjs is the ONLY Codex CLI adapter
         ├─ schemas/        → JSON schemas for Codex I/O contracts
         └─ .claude/state/  → Task resume state (survives plugin updates)

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.
