reflect

reflect is a skill for Codex from dayfinggg/openai-codex-agent-skills. It costs 53 tokens per session (358 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for reviewing completed engineering work and turning supported lessons into small improvements to future workflows or project guidance. It distinguishes one-off issues from problems that need a repeatable rule or check.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for engineering retrospectives, reviewing repeated mistakes, and proposing targeted changes to agent behavior, scripts, or project instructions.
Why use it?
It helps teams learn from failures and rework without adding broad rules based on weak evidence.

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

reflect 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.

What it actually says

Reflect

Follow the governing instructions and the user's requirements for communication, code style, authorization, and delegation. This skill supplies task-specific guidance, not permission to expand the task. Its workflow and output fields describe internal checks and relevant content, not a mandatory response layout or a progress report. When used within broader authorized work, continue that work through completion rather than stopping to deliver this skill's intermediate result.

Turn observed behavior into the smallest justified improvement.

Gather evidence

Review the objective, decisions, corrections, failures, verification results, and user feedback. Identify where the process saved effort, created rework, missed evidence, or required repeated instruction.

Classify the lesson

Distinguish a one-off circumstance, project convention, tool limitation, skill-routing problem, missing procedure, and enforceable mechanical rule. Put project-specific facts in project guidance. Prefer a script, lint, or check for deterministic constraints. Reserve skill changes for reusable judgment or workflow.

Test the proposal

State the observed failure and the new behavior that should result. Check whether an existing skill already owns it. Propose a narrow edit and a realistic scenario that would demonstrate improvement. Do not broaden a skill based on speculative edge cases.

Boundaries

Do not edit skills or project rules unless the request authorizes changes. Preserve unrelated existing instructions. Report when evidence is too weak to justify a change.

Output

Return the observations, lessons, destination for each lesson, proposed minimal change, and validation scenario.

Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.

Changes

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.
