codex_lead_cc AGENTS.md

Project instructions for codex_lead_cc, a setup that lets Codex supervise Claude Code through a bridge. They describe the project structure, commands, and file-based communication between the processes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Starting Claude Code, sending prompts, providing input, checking status, and understanding where session messages and results are stored.
Why use it?
They give coding agents the rules and commands needed to work with this supervisor without confusing its separate sessions or files.

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.

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 A, and why

codex_lead_cc 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 3d 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 — 140 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

codex_lead_cc (project docs)

Documentation only. The actual supervisor rules Codex loads are written to CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, and MEMORY.md in supervisor_home.

Final Architecture

User starts codex_lead_cc in a real project directory
  -> wrapper creates supervisor_home and session
  -> wrapper captures local Claude Code env
  -> wrapper starts one CC Bridge process
  -> bridge starts one long-lived Claude Code PTY with cwd = real project
  -> wrapper starts Codex with cwd = supervisor_home
  -> Codex uses cc-send / cc-input / cc-status

Claude Code is the only process that enters the real project directory.

Main Commands

codex_lead_cc cc-send "prompt"
codex_lead_cc cc-send <<'EOF'
multi-line prompt
EOF
codex_lead_cc cc-input --key 1
codex_lead_cc cc-status

Do not use MCP, subagents, delegate, submit, daemon, workers, queues, TaskFile, OperationRequest, TaskContract, or PermissionContract in the main path.

File IPC

Each session owns:

session_dir/
  bridge/
    inbox/
    streams/
    results/
    state.json
    bridge.log

cc-send and cc-input create request files in bridge/inbox, wait for bridge/results/<request_id>.json, and then print the final clean output. Intermediate PTY output is hidden by default; --stream tails the clean debug stream when explicitly requested.

cc-status only reads bridge/state.json.

Session Isolation

Bridge location comes from the current Codex process environment:

CODEX_LEAD_CC_SESSION_ID
CODEX_LEAD_CC_SESSION_FILE
CODEX_LEAD_CC_BRIDGE_DIR
CODEX_LEAD_CC_BRIDGE_STATE
CODEX_LEAD_CC_BIN

No global recent-session guessing. No active_session main path.

Completion

<<<CODEX_LEAD_CC_DONE>>> is auxiliary only.

Main completion:

if seen_done_marker:
  completed
else if permission_prompt_detected:
  needs_permission
else if submitted_at + submit_grace_ms passed
  && effective_output_seen === false:
    not_submitted
else if:
  now - last_output_at >= quiet_ms
  && spinner_detected === false
  && permission_prompt_detected === false
  && now - round_started_at >= min_run_ms
  && effective_output_seen === true:
    completed

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.
