openai-agents-python: Skill for Codex

.agents/skills/code-change-verification/SKILL.md

code-change-verification is a skill for Codex from openai/openai-agents-python. It costs 25 tokens per session (1,112 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A required set of checks for the OpenAI Agents Python repository, including formatting, linting, type checking, and tests. Linting finds likely code problems, and type checking checks that values are used with compatible types.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after changing runtime code, tests, or build and test configuration to run the repository's formatting, lint, type, and test checks.
Why use it?
It prevents runtime or test-related changes from being marked complete before the repository's quality checks pass.

Written for Codex: agents/openai.yaml present. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions Codex; $skill-name invocation.

This is openai/openai-agents-python's own configuration. It tells Codex how to work on openai-agents-python 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 openai-agents-python configures →

About the project

OpenAI Agents SDK is a Python framework for building workflows in which multiple AI agents use tools, delegate tasks, follow safety checks, and involve people when needed. Developers use it to create and monitor agent, sandbox, realtime, and voice applications.

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

code-change-verification 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/run.ps1, scripts/run.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.

Code Change Verification

Overview

Ensure work is only marked complete after formatting, linting, type checking, and tests pass. Use this skill when changes affect runtime code, tests, or build/test configuration. You can skip it for docs-only or repository metadata unless a user asks for the full stack. This is a post-review final gate: when $implementation-final-review applies, do not invoke the broad stack until its clean-review condition applies to the stable task diff.

Quick start

  1. Keep this skill at ./.agents/skills/code-change-verification so it loads automatically for the repository.
  2. Codex on macOS/Linux: /usr/bin/env -u OPENAI_API_KEY OPENAI_AGENTS_TEST_IN_CODEX_SANDBOX=1 UV_DEFAULT_INDEX=https://pypi.org/simple bash .agents/skills/code-change-verification/scripts/run.sh.
  3. Other macOS/Linux environments: env UV_DEFAULT_INDEX=https://pypi.org/simple bash .agents/skills/code-change-verification/scripts/run.sh.
  4. Windows: powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .agents/skills/code-change-verification/scripts/run.ps1.
  5. On macOS/Linux, the script runs make format, make lint, make typecheck, and make tests sequentially and stops at the first failure. Parallelism inside each Make target, including pytest workers, is unchanged.
  6. The Bash script streams each command's output directly. The Windows wrapper retains parallel lint, typecheck, and test steps with periodic heartbeat updates.
  7. If any command fails, fix the issue, rerun the script, and report the failing output.
  8. Confirm completion only when all commands succeed with no remaining issues.

Start condition and host capacity

  • During iterative review, use only focused tests and a narrowly targeted static check when the changed typing boundary requires one. Defer repository-wide make typecheck and the rest of this complete stack until review is clean.
  • Immediately before starting the complete stack, use available read-only task or process evidence to check whether another repository-wide test, typecheck, build, examples runner, or integration command is already active on the same host.
  • When concrete contention is visible, continue useful non-heavy work such as review, remediation, evidence preparation, or focused checks, then check again later. Do not create or wait on a repository lock, host-wide mutex, or sentinel file.
  • Start automatically once review is clean, the diff is stable, and observable host capacity is available. Do not require a user-triggered finalize message. If host telemetry is unavailable, do not block solely because capacity cannot be measured.

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.

code-change-verification is a skill published in the GitHub repository openai/openai-agents-python (30,339 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 1,112 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.
