Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: installed under .codex/.

This is Krusty84/My-CODEX-Configuration's own configuration. It tells Codex how to work on My-CODEX-Configuration 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 My-CODEX-Configuration configures →

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

create-update-readme-md 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 7d 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

If this skill is used,say:SKILL_CR_UPD_README_LOADED

Goal

Create or update the Features section of a README.md so it is accurate, concise, and aligned with the current capabilities of the project.

Inputs

  • Existing README.md or new README.md if none exists
  • Relevant source files, docs, release notes, changelog entries, or user-provided notes
  • Any repository-specific terminology already used by the project

Steps

  1. Read the current README.md and locate the existing Features section if present.
  2. Inspect the most relevant sources of truth for current functionality:
    • public docs
    • recent release notes or changelog
    • feature folders / modules
    • user-provided notes
  3. Preserve the project’s tone and terminology.
  4. Prefer feature statements that describe user-visible capability, not internal implementation details.
  5. Remove stale, duplicated, or vague feature bullets.
  6. Group related features when that improves clarity.
  7. Do not invent features that are not supported by the repo or the provided material.

Output rules

  • Keep the section concise.
  • Prefer parallel bullet phrasing.
  • Use the repository’s existing markdown style.
  • If confidence is low for a feature, omit it or explicitly flag uncertainty outside the edited README.md.

Do not

  • Do not rewrite the whole README.md unless requested.
  • Do not add roadmap items as shipped features.
  • Do not describe internal refactors as features.

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.
