codex-cli

codex-cli is a plugin for Claude Code from gitguffaw/codex-router. Its manifest loads nothing; the 1 skill it bundles cost 89 tokens per session together, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A Claude Code plugin that teaches the agent to run the installed Codex command-line program directly. It is the minimal CLI-focused counterpart to a routed Codex setup.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when Claude Code needs to perform native Codex CLI tasks such as searches, reviews, or delegated work.
Why use it?
It supports explicit raw Codex CLI work while avoiding claims about job tracking or background recovery. When Codex Router is present, it defers to that plugin.

Security

Grade A, and why

codex-cli 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 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.

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.

What it installs

The manifest is a name and a version. 1 skill travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 89 tokens a session between them. Each is measured on its own page, and each can be installed alone.

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.
