Configure Everything Codex

An interactive, step-by-step installation guide for the everything-codex project.

When to Activate

• User says "configure codex", "install everything-codex", or similar
• User wants to selectively install skills or rules
• User wants to verify or fix an existing installation

Step 0: Clone Repository

rm -rf /tmp/everything-codex
git clone https://github.com/anthropics/everything-codex.git /tmp/everything-codex

Set ECX_ROOT=/tmp/everything-codex as the source for all subsequent operations.

---

Step 1: Choose Installation Level

Ask the user where to install:

• User-level (~/.codex/ for config, ~/.agents/skills/ for skills) — Applies to all projects
• Project-level (.agents/skills/ in project root) — Applies to current project only

---

Step 2: Select & Install Skills

Skill Categories

Use interactive prompts to let the user choose:

• Core Workflow — plan, code-review, tdd, security-review, verify, checkpoint
• Framework & Language — Django, Spring Boot, Go, Python, TypeScript patterns
• Database — PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, JPA/Hibernate
• Multi-Model — orchestrate, multi-plan, multi-execute, multi-workflow
• Learning — continuous-learning-v2, learn, evolve, instinct management
• All skills — Install everything

Execute Installation

# Skills install to ~/.agents/skills/ (user-level) or .agents/skills/ (project-level)
SKILLS_DIR="$HOME/.agents/skills"  # or .agents/skills for project-level
for skill_dir in $ECX_ROOT/skills/*/; do
    skill_name=$(basename "$skill_dir")
    mkdir -p "$SKILLS_DIR/$skill_name"
    cp -r "$skill_dir"* "$SKILLS_DIR/$skill_name/"
done

---

Step 3: Install AGENTS.md and Rules

# Root AGENTS.md
cp $ECX_ROOT/AGENTS.md ~/.codex/AGENTS.md

# Language-specific AGENTS.md templates
for lang in golang python typescript; do
    mkdir -p ~/.codex/$lang
    cp $ECX_ROOT/$lang/AGENTS.md ~/.codex/$lang/
done

# Execution policy rules
mkdir -p ~/.codex/rules
cp $ECX_ROOT/rules/*.rules ~/.codex/rules/
