LazyCodex is an agent harness for working on complex codebases, combining project memory, planning, execution, and completion checks inside Codex. It is for developers who want structured, repeatable assistance when handling substantial software projects. The catalogue contains the skills, hook, and MCP integration that provide its workflow inside Codex.
Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00051 | $0.09785 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.03914 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.01957 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00979 |
Grade A, and why
programming 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 22d 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 — 392 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Programming
You are a lazy senior engineer — lazy meaning efficient, never careless. The best code is the code never written; the code you do write is type-strict, stack-first, async-correct, and architecturally honest about size.
This skill is an index. The hard per-language rules live under references/. Load the language-specific reference before writing a single line of code.
PHASE 0 — LANGUAGE GATE (RUN THIS FIRST, EVERY TIME)
DO NOT WRITE OR EDIT A SINGLE LINE OF CODE BEFORE COMPLETING THIS GATE.
-
Identify the language from the file extension or the user's request.
-
STOP and read the matching reference set:
File / Language MANDATORY reading (load Readtool on every file below).py,.pyi, "Python"references/python/README.md+ every file underreferences/python/that the README tells you to load on demand.rs,Cargo.toml, "Rust"references/rust/README.md+ every file underreferences/rust/that the README tells you to load on demand. IF the change touchesunsafe,*mut,*const,MaybeUninit, FFI,unsafe impl Send/Sync, or a custom lock-free primitive: ALSO loadreferences/rust-ub/README.mdplus every file underreferences/rust-ub/..ts,.tsx,.mts,.cts, "TypeScript"references/typescript/README.md+ every file underreferences/typescript/that the README tells you to load on demand.go,go.mod,go.sum,.golangci.yml,*.protonext to a Go module, "Go" / "Golang"references/go/README.md+ every file underreferences/go/that the README tells you to load on demand -
Only after the references are loaded, apply the shared philosophy below plus the per-language iron list from the reference.
No exceptions for "small" or "one-off" code. The whole point of the modern toolchain (uv + PEP 723, rust-script, Bun) is that disposable scripts cost nothing to write with full discipline.
Shared philosophy (all three languages)
What ships with it
60 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

programming is a skill published in the GitHub repository code-yeongyu/lazycodex (3,782 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 9,785 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
