Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Review a small code or documentation change and return only evidence-backed correctness findings. Use in the Codex How To local plugin lab; do not modify files or post remote comments.

Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Select the smallest useful Codex engineering workflow from this repository's existing skills. Use when a task spans multiple engineering concerns, the user is unsure which skill to invoke, or loading every specialist would waste context; return a recommendation only and do not execute the engineering task.

build-backend

03

Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Build or modify backend APIs, services, jobs, persistence, and integrations while preserving contracts, authorization, data integrity, and failure behavior. Use for server-side features, database changes, background processing, backend defects, and service refactors; do not use for frontend-only or infrastructure-only…

build-frontend

04

Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Build or modify frontend interfaces using repository-native components while preserving accessibility, responsive behavior, state handling, and visual verification. Use for UI features, design implementation, forms, client-side defects, and frontend refactors; do not use for backend-only or infrastructure-only work.

engineering-loop

05

Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Drive an authorized repository change through a verified local loop: baseline, reproduce, implement, test, review, and report evidence. Use for end-to-end features or fixes that should continue autonomously until observable acceptance criteria pass; do not use for explanation-only, review-only, or production…

operate-devops

07

Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Plan and implement infrastructure, CI/CD, container, deployment, observability, and operational configuration changes with least privilege, staged validation, and rollback awareness. Use for pipelines, infrastructure as code, Kubernetes, containers, release automation, monitoring, and production-readiness work; do not…

Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Coordinate complex engineering work across bounded subagents while protecting the main context, preventing edit conflicts, and measuring whether delegation was worthwhile. Use when the user asks to delegate, parallelize, orchestrate, use subagents, fan out a review, or handle a large task with independent workstreams…

review-code

09

Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Review code changes for correctness defects, regressions, security risks, data-integrity problems, concurrency hazards, and missing meaningful tests. Use for pull requests, branches, commits, patches, or working-tree reviews; do not use for implementation unless the user separately requests fixes.

review-security

10

Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Review application and infrastructure changes for exploitable security risks by tracing assets, trust boundaries, attacker-controlled input, authorization, sensitive data, and dangerous sinks. Use for security reviews, threat-focused PR reviews, authentication or authorization changes, input handling, secrets…

Phelan164/codex-howto

Skill Claude CodeCodex

Design, implement, and evaluate risk-based software tests across unit, integration, contract, end-to-end, and regression layers. Use when adding tests, reproducing bugs, improving coverage, diagnosing flaky tests, or defining a test strategy; do not use to change production behavior unless the user also requests…
