continuum-codex

continuum-codex is a skill for Claude Code from shyftlabs/continuum. It costs 68 tokens per session (724 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A project setup guide for using OpenAI Codex CLI with Continuum, an agent framework, through AGENTS.md project instructions and conventions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add Continuum guidance to AGENTS.md and configure Codex for Continuum projects.
Why use it?
It gives Codex the framework details needed to generate code that follows Continuum's APIs, imports, and asynchronous execution model.

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

continuum-codex 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.

Continuum + Codex CLI Skill

Codex CLI reads AGENTS.md from the project root automatically. The Continuum repo ships a ready-made AGENTS.md — copy or symlink it into any downstream project.


Minimal AGENTS.md for a Continuum project

# My Project — Agent Knowledge Pack

@/path/to/continuum/AGENTS.md

## Project-specific conventions

- Package: `my_app` (imports as `from my_app import ...`)
- Entry point: `src/my_app/main.py`
- Agents are defined in `src/my_app/agents.py`
- Tests: `pytest tests/` with `pytest-asyncio`

## Key agents in this project

| Agent | File | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| `SupportAgent` | `agents/support.py` | Customer support triage |
| `BillingAgent` | `agents/billing.py` | Billing inquiries |

The @import pulls in the full Continuum API reference so Codex knows every class, field, and pattern.


What AGENTS.md must include for Continuum projects

Codex needs these facts to write correct code on the first try:

  1. Import name: continuum (the distribution is shyftlabs-continuum)
  2. Async: all public APIs are async — entrypoints need asyncio.run()
  3. Provider routing: by model-string prefix, or via SMART_GATEWAY_URL
  4. Infrastructure: Redis on :6380, Milvus/Qdrant for memory
  5. No LiteLLM: direct provider SDKs only

Minimal addition to any AGENTS.md:

## Continuum conventions

- Import: `from continuum.agent import BaseAgent, AgentRunner`
- All APIs async. Use `asyncio.run(main())` at entrypoints.
- Model routing: prefix-based (`gpt-*` → OpenAI, `claude-*` → Anthropic, `gemini/*` → Gemini)
- Gateway: set `SMART_GATEWAY_URL` to route all models through the Smart Gateway
- Memory: Redis (:6380) for sessions, Milvus (:19530) or Qdrant (:6333) for long-term
- Load dotenv: always `load_dotenv()` before importing continuum settings

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.
