codex-test-gen

codex-test-gen is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sd0xdev/sd0x-harness. It costs 15 tokens per session (212 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for generating unit tests—small automated checks for individual functions—using Codex.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create unit tests for specified functions. It is not intended for reviewing existing coverage or writing integration and end-to-end tests.
Why use it?
It saves time when adding basic test coverage for existing functions and gives the tests a consistent generation process.

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-test-gen 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.

What it actually says

Codex Test Gen

Thin entry-point skill — routes to the parent skill for full workflow.

Parent Skill

This skill delegates to test-review for the underlying Codex MCP infrastructure. The generation-specific prompt template is at @skills/test-review/references/codex-prompt-test-gen.md.

See @skills/test-review/SKILL.md

Variant

This is the Generation variant — creates new unit tests for specified functions.

Trigger

  • Keywords: generate tests, write tests, create tests, codex-test-gen

When NOT to Use

  • Reviewing existing test coverage (use /codex-test-review)
  • Code review (use /codex-review-fast)

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.
