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

ccc-codex 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 241 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

$ccc-codex — manage the Codex CLI

CC Commander · $ccc-codex · check, configure and extend the local Codex CLI without leaving the session

When to use / when not to

  • Use to diagnose Codex, pick its default model, install Commander's Codex plugin, add MCP servers or custom agents, run Codex reviews or cloud tasks, or change Codex config and feature flags.
  • Do not use to delegate a whole implementation task to Codex; use $ccc-orchestrate.
  • Do not use for Claude Code settings; use $ccc-settings.

Reference tables live beside this file: references/models.md (model lineup and effort levels), references/commands.md (every subcommand and flag used here), references/config.md (config keys, feature flags, profiles, marketplace format).

What happens

Step 0 — preflight (every subcommand)

command -v codex && codex --version
CODEX_HOME_DIR="${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}"
CODEX_CONFIG="$CODEX_HOME_DIR/config.toml"
echo "$CODEX_CONFIG"; [ -f "$CODEX_CONFIG" ] && echo "config present" || echo "no config yet"

If codex is missing, stop and say: "Codex CLI not found. Install it with npm install -g @openai/codex, then rerun $ccc-codex doctor." Honor CODEX_HOME everywhere below; never assume ~/.codex when it is set.

Step 1 — route

If $ARGUMENTS names a subcommand, go to that section. On a bare invocation, ask with AskUserQuestion (header "Codex"); on Codex itself, ask the same options as a numbered plain-text question:

  • 🟢 Health check — codex doctor, then the fix for whatever fails
  • Models and config — default model, effort, feature flags, profiles, update, import
  • Extensions — plugins (including Commander's mirror), MCP servers, custom agents
  • Run work — review, cloud tasks, remote control

Then ask a second picker with the subcommands in the chosen group.

Config backup (before any change to config.toml)

Every command that writes config (features enable|disable, mcp add|remove, plugin add|remove, plugin marketplace add|remove, a model or profile edit) runs only after the user confirms, and only after this backup:

What ships with it

3 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.

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.
