codex-mobile: Skill for Codex

.agents/skills/codex-app-parity/SKILL.md

codex-app-parity is a skill for Codex from friuns2/codex-mobile. It costs 40 tokens per session (12,722 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A specialised guide for comparing behavior with the installed Codex desktop app. It uses the desktop app as the reference and checks results with automated browser tests and screenshots.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it only for Codex parity work: checking features, updating related test instructions, and verifying light and dark themes or other visible behavior.
Why use it?
It helps determine whether a change matches the app's existing user-visible behavior instead of relying only on assumptions or code inspection.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: agents/openai.yaml present. Also seen: reads ~/.codex paths; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions Codex.

This is friuns2/codex-mobile's own configuration. It tells Codex how to work on codex-mobile itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything codex-mobile configures →

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /Users/igor/Git-projects/codex-web-local/scripts/run-codex-unpacked-debug.sh.

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-app-parity scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Codex App Parity Skill

Use this skill only when the user explicitly asks for Codex parity work, names codex-app-parity, mentions Codex.app parity, or asks to compare behavior against the installed Codex desktop app. Do not auto-trigger this skill for ordinary feature work, UI changes, or user-visible behavior changes unless the user explicitly requests that parity workflow.

Objective

Ensure behavior is implemented with Codex.app as the source of truth, then verified with headless Playwright and screenshots.

Project Instructions

Repo Knowledge Maintenance

For user-visible Directory, Skills, Apps, Plugins, MCP, or Composio changes in this repo:

  • Update the relevant manual test doc under tests/<domain>/... with verification steps, including light and dark theme checks. Update tests.md only when adding, renaming, or removing a domain folder.
  • If the change creates or changes durable behavior/architecture, add or update an llm-wiki/raw/... source and corresponding llm-wiki/wiki/... concept page.
  • Keep whatToTest.md as a short pending-only checklist; remove items that were actually executed successfully.
  • Prefer assertions plus screenshots for browser validation; screenshots alone are not enough.

Codex.app-First Development Policy

For every new feature and every behavior/UI change, treat the installed desktop app as the source of truth:

  • App path: /Applications/Codex.app
  • Primary bundle to inspect: /Applications/Codex.app/Contents/Resources/app.asar

Do not implement first and compare later. Compare first, then implement.

How to Search for Features in Codex.app

Extraction

Extract the app bundle once (reuse if already extracted):

mkdir -p /tmp/codex-app-extracted
npx asar extract "/Applications/Codex.app/Contents/Resources/app.asar" /tmp/codex-app-extracted

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.
