How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 111 edited versions we read keep these.
4
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 13
Check command -v codex and codex exec --help.
- Distinctive: line 14
Read the repository instructions and inspect git status --short.
- Distinctive: line 15
Write a focused prompt containing the user's task, relevant paths, constraints, and required checks.
- Distinctive: line 19
Use the user's configured model.
- Distinctive: line 29
Wait for completion and read the exit status and output.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 111 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Codex handoff
This is JMO's standalone handoff skill. It is not gstack's /codex skill and does not require gstack.
Prepare the task
- Check
command -v codexandcodex exec --help. If missing, direct the user to https://developers.openai.com/codex/cli/ and explain that they must install and sign in to Codex. Do not claim a handoff ran when the CLI is unavailable. - Read the repository instructions and inspect
git status --short. Identify the working directory, requested mode (review, advice, or implementation), allowed files, and acceptance criteria. Default to read-only review when the request does not authorize edits. - Write a focused prompt containing the user's task, relevant paths, constraints, and required checks. Include enough context for a separate agent without passing credentials or unrelated private material. Tell Codex which files are already modified and to preserve those changes.
Run Codex
Use the user's configured model. Pass the prompt through stdin or a quoted heredoc, not interpolated shell text. Replace the example directory with the actual absolute project path:
codex exec --sandbox read-only --cd '/absolute/project/path' - <<'TASK'
Review the specified changes. Do not edit files. Report actionable findings with file locations, evidence, and uncertainty. Follow the repository's instructions.
TASKFor an authorized implementation, use --sandbox workspace-write and a prompt with the exact task, allowed files, and verification criteria. Do not use flags that bypass approvals or sandboxing. If the task cannot run within the current permissions, report that limitation.
Wait for completion and read the exit status and output. Do not let Claude and Codex edit the same files concurrently. For parallel work, use separate worktrees and explicit file ownership; integrate only after reviewing the resulting changes.
Verify and report
For a review, inspect the cited code and assess each finding before presenting it as confirmed. For implementation, inspect the diff and run the relevant checks. Report what Codex changed or found, what was verified, and any remaining failures. Do not automatically commit, push, or deploy unless that is part of the user's task.
Task: $ARGUMENTS
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
