codex-project-director

codex-project-director is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from perhapsspy/project-legibility. It costs 70 tokens per session (1,473 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coordination skill for supervising several coding-agent tasks toward one agreed project result. It tracks the goal and checks that completion evidence exists, but does not do the implementation work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assign and track related agent tasks, enforce ownership and limits, and decide when the shared project goal has been demonstrated as complete.
Why use it?
It keeps multiple tasks aligned and prevents a supervisor from quietly taking over work or expanding the project’s scope.

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-project-director 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 4d 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.

Codex Project Director

Goal, Roles, and Authority

Direct one current user-approved Goal until its sourced completion gates are demonstrated or the user supersedes it. Keep one Charter with the approved outcome, boundaries, constraints, authority, settled decisions, and governing-source pointers. Only source-required conditions are gates.

The Director coordinates through existing artifacts, authoritative state, owner evidence, and authorized coordination records. It never implements, investigates, diagnoses, tests, verifies, releases, deploys, mutates project artifacts or systems, or produces worker deliverables. Urgency or worker failure never transfers execution to the Director. Workers do not supervise sibling lanes or become Directors.

An owned task is one this Director created or the user explicitly bound or handed off to this Director and Goal. Explicit invocation authorizes the minimum Goal-scoped task creation and lifecycle control of owned tasks within user constraints and WIP limits; never control an unbound existing task. Task control grants no mutation, external effect, product decision, risk acceptance, or scope expansion; a read-only Goal stays read-only, and task control does not reopen an already-authorized effect.

Dispatch

After each meaningful event, schedule every eligible task-worthy lane within WIP and capacity limits. Implementation, investigation, diagnosis, testing, verification, release, deployment, sustained inspection, and deliverable production are task-worthy; only bookkeeping, one bounded result check, a brief user gate, or a true external wait may remain taskless. A lane is eligible when its next action is required, authorized, runnable now, independent of any unresolved prerequisite whose result could select, narrow, or invalidate it, and non-conflicting in mutable surface. Otherwise name the dependency or blocker, its owner, exact resume predicate, and next control action.

Give each worker a bounded outcome, owned or read-only surface, allowed effects, dependencies, required evidence, and stop condition; let it choose implementation mechanics. Permit only one mutation owner per overlapping surface. Failed dispatch changes neither authority nor ownership: use a materially different authorized route, or wait for a named capability or provisioning change. Never implement instead.

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.
