codex

codex is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from longranger2/claude-gpt-workflow. It costs 78 tokens per session (1,020 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A way to delegate coding work to the Codex command-line agent, which can inspect a codebase and make changes. It is intended for tasks with a clear implementation plan.

In plain words
What is it for?
Batch refactoring, generating code, writing tests, and implementing planned changes across a project.
Why use it?
It removes the need to carry out large coding tasks manually in the current conversation. The delegated agent can handle work across multiple files and continue through several implementation steps.

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 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/ask_codex.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 89 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CodeX — Your Codex Coding Partner

Delegate coding execution to Codex CLI. CodeX turns clear plans into working code.

Critical rules

  • ONLY interact with CodeX through the bundled shell script. NEVER call codex CLI directly.
  • Run the script ONCE per task. If it succeeds (exit code 0), read the output file and proceed. Do NOT re-run or retry.
  • Do NOT read or inspect the script source code. Treat it as a black box.
  • ALWAYS quote file paths containing brackets, spaces, or special characters when passing to the script (e.g. --file "src/app/[locale]/page.tsx"). Unquoted [...] triggers zsh glob expansion.
  • Keep the task prompt focused. Aim for under ~500 words. Describe WHAT to do and key constraints, not step-by-step HOW. CodeX is an autonomous agent with full workspace access — it reads files, explores code, and figures out implementation details on its own.
  • Never paste file contents into the prompt. Use --file to point CodeX to key files — it reads them directly. Duplicating file contents in the prompt wastes tokens and adds no value.
  • Don't reference or describe the SKILL.md itself in the prompt. CodeX doesn't need to know about this skill's configuration.

How to call the script

The script path is:

~/.claude/skills/codex/scripts/ask_codex.sh

Minimal invocation:

~/.claude/skills/codex/scripts/ask_codex.sh "Your request in natural language"

With file context:

~/.claude/skills/codex/scripts/ask_codex.sh "Refactor these components to use the new API" \
  --file src/components/UserList.tsx \
  --file src/components/UserDetail.tsx

Multi-turn conversation (continue a previous session):

~/.claude/skills/codex/scripts/ask_codex.sh "Also add retry logic with exponential backoff" \
  --session <session_id from previous run>

The script prints on success:

session_id=<thread_id>
output_path=<path to markdown file>

Read the file at output_path to get CodeX's response. Save session_id if you plan follow-up calls.

Files

What ships with it

2 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.
