codex-dispatch

codex-dispatch is a skill for Codex from 100yenadmin/fable-token-saving-skills-orchestrator. It costs 24 tokens per session (587 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for sending well-defined implementation work from one coding agent to Codex or another worker. The request includes the goal, files, constraints, validation, and expected report.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to delegate bounded coding tasks with clear acceptance criteria, commands for checking the result, and a defined proof of completion.
Why use it?
It helps split implementation work safely when another worker has enough context to complete it and the main agent can review the result.

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-dispatch 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 6d 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.

Codex Dispatch

Premium tokens buy judgment. Codex or side-worker capacity buys implementation volume when the task is well specified.

Dispatch When

  • the task is self-contained
  • the spec carries enough context
  • acceptance criteria are explicit
  • the work can happen on a side branch or bounded file set
  • Fable can review the result instead of typing it

Keep With Fable Or A Higher Local Lane When

  • the task is architecture, product strategy, or final judgment
  • the implementation depends on local-only tools the side worker lacks
  • the acceptance criteria are unclear
  • the task requires private credentials or live user action

Dispatch Packet

Include:

  • objective
  • repo/path/branch
  • files or areas involved
  • constraints and non-goals
  • pseudocode for hard parts
  • exact validation command or CI gate
  • proof boundary
  • expected final report shape

Mechanics

Some lanes are reachable through a CLI rather than a workflow model parameter. When a background shell launches a side worker, close stdin explicitly if the tool expects EOF. For Codex CLI, use:

codex exec --cd <worktree> "<prompt>" < /dev/null

Without the redirected stdin, some background shells can leave the worker waiting at startup instead of doing work.

Skill Availability

Side workers do not automatically see every local Claude skill. Port skills on demand when a dispatch needs them; do not mirror an entire skill library by default.

Example:

ln -sfn "$HOME/.claude/skills/<skill>" "$HOME/.codex/skills/<skill>"

Name the required skill in the dispatch packet and keep the accepted output bounded. If the side worker lacks a required skill and the work is not self-contained, keep the task with Fable or a local lane.

Review Rule

If the diff or report is large, ask a fast worker for a bounded digest first. Fable reads the digest and flagged hunks, not the whole raw output.

Attribution And Adjacent Tools

This dispatch pattern is inspired in part by blader/arbitrage, which focuses on premium-model judgment plus Codex implementation. Claude Code users who want a slash-command bridge to Codex review and delegation workflows can also look at openai/codex-plugin-cc.

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.

codex-dispatch is a skill published in the GitHub repository 100yenadmin/fable-token-saving-skills-orchestrator (101 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 587 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
