symphony: Skill for Codex

.codex/skills/push/SKILL.md

push is a skill for Codex from openai/symphony. It costs 31 tokens per session (1,050 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for sending the current Git branch to the shared repository and creating or updating its GitHub pull request. A pull request is a review page for proposed code changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when asked to push changes, publish a branch, or create or update the related pull request on GitHub.
Why use it?
It reduces mistakes when publishing work, such as pushing to the wrong state or ignoring changes already made on the remote branch. It also specifies what to do when the push is rejected or authentication fails.

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

About the project

Symphony turns project tasks into isolated implementation runs handled autonomously by coding agents, with work tracked through a Linear board. Teams use it to manage engineering work at a higher level instead of supervising each agent. The catalogue includes seven skills associated with Symphony.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, 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 →

  • high Tool Misuse · line 68
    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

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

push 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 118 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Push

Prerequisites

  • gh CLI is installed and available in PATH.
  • gh auth status succeeds for GitHub operations in this repo.

Goals

  • Push current branch changes to origin safely.
  • Create a PR if none exists for the branch, otherwise update the existing PR.
  • Keep branch history clean when remote has moved.
  • pull: use this when push is rejected or sync is not clean (non-fast-forward, merge conflict risk, or stale branch).

Steps

  1. Identify current branch and confirm remote state.

  2. Run local validation (make -C elixir all) before pushing.

  3. Push branch to origin with upstream tracking if needed, using whatever remote URL is already configured.

  4. If push is not clean/rejected:

    • If the failure is a non-fast-forward or sync problem, run the pull skill to merge origin/main, resolve conflicts, and rerun validation.
    • Push again; use --force-with-lease only when history was rewritten.
    • If the failure is due to auth, permissions, or workflow restrictions on the configured remote, stop and surface the exact error instead of rewriting remotes or switching protocols as a workaround.
  5. Ensure a PR exists for the branch:

    • If no PR exists, create one.
    • If a PR exists and is open, update it.
    • If branch is tied to a closed/merged PR, create a new branch + PR.
    • Write a proper PR title that clearly describes the change outcome
    • For branch updates, explicitly reconsider whether current PR title still matches the latest scope; update it if it no longer does.
  6. Write/update PR body explicitly using .github/pull_request_template.md:

    • Fill every section with concrete content for this change.
    • Replace all placeholder comments (<!-- ... -->).
    • Keep bullets/checkboxes where template expects them.
    • If PR already exists, refresh body content so it reflects the total PR scope (all intended work on the branch), not just the newest commits, including newly added work, removed work, or changed approach.
    • Do not reuse stale description text from earlier iterations.
  7. Validate PR body with mix pr_body.check and fix all reported issues.

  8. Reply with the PR URL from gh pr view.

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.
