Gini Agent is a personal AI-agent runtime that manages conversations, runs, tasks, approvals, memory, skills, jobs, tools, traces, audit events, and runtime health across its clients. It is for an agent that can remember, learn from task outcomes, and operate through desktop or mobile interfaces with user controls. Catalogue add-ons extend the runtime with skills and instructions.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 9 findings, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00023 | $0.00908 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00363 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00182 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00091 |
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 1mo 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 — 125 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Codex CLI
Use the OpenAI Codex CLI when the user wants an autonomous coding pass in a git repository: feature work, bug fixes, refactors, review passes, or isolated experiments.
Prerequisites
- Install:
npm install -g @openai/codex - Authenticate with the Codex CLI login flow, or provide a valid OpenAI API key.
- Run inside a git repository. For scratch work, create a temporary repo first.
- Use
pty=truefor interactive Codex commands.
Codex CLI OAuth usually lives under ~/.codex/auth.json. Do not assume Codex
is unauthenticated only because OPENAI_API_KEY is missing.
When to Use
- User asks for a second coding agent to implement, review, or investigate.
- Work can be scoped to a repository, branch, or worktree.
- A task benefits from a separate autonomous pass while Gini keeps the main approval, audit, and trace path.
When NOT to Use
- User only needs a small direct edit that Gini can do faster.
- The working directory is not a git repo and the user did not ask for scratch prototyping.
- The request involves secrets, credential files, or destructive commands without explicit approval boundaries.
Quick Tasks
Run a focused one-shot from the target repo:
codex exec "Find why the dashboard test is flaky, patch the smallest fix, and run the targeted test."
Review local changes:
codex exec "Review git diff --stat and git diff for bugs, regressions, and missing tests. Return findings only."
Scratch prototype in a disposable repo:
tmp=$(mktemp -d)
cd "$tmp"
git init
codex exec "Create a tiny Bun CLI that parses a JSON file and prints a summary."
Long-Running Work
For long tasks, launch in the background with a PTY, then poll the process rather than starting duplicate Codex runs.
codex exec --full-auto "Refactor the settings loader. Keep the diff narrow and commit when tests pass."
Use --full-auto only when repository writes are expected and the user has
accepted the risk. Avoid --yolo unless the user explicitly asks for it.
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.

codex is a skill published in the GitHub repository Open-Curiosity/gini-agent (2,021 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 908 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
