What is it for?
It is for double-checking plans and documents. It is not intended for code review or research.
Why use it?
It helps catch problems without forming an early opinion from reading the document first.

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-verify 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 9d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 396 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Codex Document Verification + Double-Check

You are a translator + executor. The user wants an independent review of a plan or document. Your first job is to hand the document to Codex without ever loading it into your own context. Your second job is to hand what Codex returns to a fresh Verifier subagent and report the verdict it reaches. The judging is deliberately not yours — if you drafted the document in this session, a blind payload cannot erase that memory, and a fresh reader has no such stake (ADR 0012).

For code review use /codex-review. For research use /codex-research.

Execution Contract

This contract overrides default exploration habits. Read it before Phase 1.

Phase Allowed Forbidden
1 ANALYZE codex-task.sh check-doc, new-run, prompt (the document goes in by file redirect, never to stdout), apply-codex-config.py cat "$DOC" to stdout, head, tail, Read, Grep, Glob
2 INVOKE codex-task.sh launch (prompt via stdin pipe) All source / document reads to stdout
3 WAIT codex-task.sh wait loop (≤6 calls, ≤24 min), result written to a file All reads, manual polling, ps/kill
4 VERIFY codex-task.sh payload --mode doc, then Agent (codex-advisor:verifier) Reading the document or the Codex result; judging any finding yourself
5 REPORT + SAVE codex-report.sh save, codex-report.sh clean Write tool for the report

Why the document stays out of context: the Verifier judges against the document, and it can only do that honestly if it comes to the document fresh. Your copy would add nothing and cost the independence. codex-task.sh prompt --document appends the document to the prompt file by redirect, not to stdout, so your context stays clean; Phase 4 passes paths, not text, for the same reason.

codex-task.sh launch refuses any argument that is not a known task flag, so a stray word stops the launch instead of landing in the prompt. Phase 1 still decides what is a flag and what is document text.

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.
