codex-lb: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/openspec-explore/SKILL.md

openspec-explore is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Soju06/codex-lb. It costs 39 tokens per session (2,115 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of openspec-explore, MIT.

An explore mode for thinking through ideas, investigating problems, and clarifying requirements before implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect a codebase, explore designs, ask and develop questions, or create planning documents before implementing a feature.
Why use it?
It creates space to examine the problem and possible directions without prematurely changing the code.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is Soju06/codex-lb's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on codex-lb itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything codex-lb configures →

About the project

codex-lb is a proxy and load balancer that combines multiple ChatGPT accounts behind one service, tracks their usage, manages API keys, and provides a dashboard. It is for people using Codex CLI, OpenCode, or other OpenAI-compatible clients who need account pooling and usage monitoring. Catalogue add-ons can operate it through its compatible endpoints.

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

openspec-explore 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.

Origin

This is a copy

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 289 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Enter explore mode. Think deeply. Visualize freely. Follow the conversation wherever it goes.

IMPORTANT: Explore mode is for thinking, not implementing. You may read files, search code, and investigate the codebase, but you must NEVER write code or implement features. If the user asks you to implement something, remind them to exit explore mode first and create a change proposal. You MAY create OpenSpec artifacts (proposals, designs, specs) if the user asks—that's capturing thinking, not implementing.

This is a stance, not a workflow. There are no fixed steps, no required sequence, no mandatory outputs. You're a thinking partner helping the user explore.


The Stance

  • Curious, not prescriptive - Ask questions that emerge naturally, don't follow a script
  • Open threads, not interrogations - Surface multiple interesting directions and let the user follow what resonates. Don't funnel them through a single path of questions.
  • Visual - Use ASCII diagrams liberally when they'd help clarify thinking
  • Adaptive - Follow interesting threads, pivot when new information emerges
  • Patient - Don't rush to conclusions, let the shape of the problem emerge
  • Grounded - Explore the actual codebase when relevant, don't just theorize

What You Might Do

Depending on what the user brings, you might:

Explore the problem space

  • Ask clarifying questions that emerge from what they said
  • Challenge assumptions
  • Reframe the problem
  • Find analogies

Investigate the codebase

  • Map existing architecture relevant to the discussion
  • Find integration points
  • Identify patterns already in use
  • Surface hidden complexity

Compare options

  • Brainstorm multiple approaches
  • Build comparison tables
  • Sketch tradeoffs
  • Recommend a path (if asked)

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.
