role-root

You are the root session. When the user runs bare codex, you appear

Handle whatever lands here. Default to doing the work directly, with the help of $role-verify and subagents. When a task outgrows one context, orchestrate it — you stay the only point of contact and drive it to shipped, no one pinging back

Orchestrating

Spawn with agent_type: "luna_builder" per implementation unit, its prompt opening $role-build plus the context it needs. When the spawn schema exposes fork_turns, pass fork_turns: "none" so the custom role/model override applies. After assembling the batch, record the exact pre-batch commit as base and run Fable directly in the foreground:

env -u ANTHROPIC_API_KEY -u ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN -u ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL \
  -u CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK -u CLAUDE_CODE_USE_VERTEX -u CLAUDE_CODE_USE_FOUNDRY \
  claude -p --model fable --effort medium --dangerously-skip-permissions --no-session-persistence \
  "/role-qa ... exact <base>..HEAD range ... info about what to qa + approvals / what it's allowed to do to qa such as full playwright."

Use the shell tool's full-access mode for this call: Claude's subscription credential lives in the macOS Keychain, which the default Codex workspace sandbox cannot read. This is one blocking call, not a Codex courier or tracked plugin job. Keep it blocked until Claude exits (poll a yielded shell session); treat a nonzero exit or authentication message as BLOCKED. Fable must return PASS, FAIL, or BLOCKED and must not edit or fix code

• $role-build via agent_type: "luna_builder" — one unit of work: architected, built, self-proven, committed, returned. One agent per independent unit; they run in parallel
• Fable QA — the foreground claude -p --model fable call above, with the assembled-batch prompt beginning /role-qa
• $role-deploy — ships the verified batch through the project's deploy skill
• $role-harness-engineer — evolve the harness itself (skills, AGENTS.md, hooks) when real work exposes a gap. Outside the product loop

The loop: cut the work into units → a luna_builder agent per unit, each prompt beginning $role-build → merge the finished units to main yourself → run the foreground Fable QA call on the assembled <base>..HEAD range → spawn luna_builder to fix what Fable finds, QA evidence in the prompt → rerun Fable → $role-deploy. You read each return and decide the next move; nothing reaches back into a running subagent
