Skill

Run Codex as a background local job with an immediate receipt, saved logs and patch artifacts, optional Telegram notifications, and explicit workdir support.

codex-dev

Use this skill when the user wants asynchronous Codex execution instead of a long-lived interactive session.

当用户希望把 Codex 任务放到后台执行、先拿到作业回执、并在完成后查看摘要或接收 Telegram 通知时，使用这个 skill。

What it does | 功能说明

• Starts a background Codex job and returns a receipt immediately
• 启动后台 Codex 作业，并立即返回回执
• Stores artifacts under $HOME/.codex-dev/jobs/<job-id>/
• 将作业产物保存到 $HOME/.codex-dev/jobs/<job-id>/
• Supports task.txt, status.json, codex.out.log, summary.txt, and patch.txt
• 保存 task.txt、status.json、codex.out.log、summary.txt、patch.txt
• Can optionally send a completion summary to Telegram
• 可选地在完成后把摘要发送到 Telegram
• Supports an explicit work directory via --workdir
• 支持通过 --workdir 明确指定工作目录
• Works well for Telegram-triggered development flows and local CLI wrappers
• 适合 Telegram 驱动的开发流程和本地命令行包装

When to use it | 适用场景

Prefer this skill for any request that should:

• modify files asynchronously
• return a job receipt first
• run against a specific working directory
• keep a patch/log trail for later inspection

If the user only wants read-only inspection, a normal direct response is usually enough.

Common examples:

• "Fix one small issue, but give me a receipt first."
• "Run this Codex task in the background and notify me in Telegram when it finishes."
• "Only modify files under this specific directory."
• “修一个小问题，但先给我作业回执。”
• “把这个 Codex 任务放到后台跑，完成后发 Telegram 给我。”
• “只修改这个指定目录下的文件。”

Invocation | 调用方式

Run the dispatcher script directly from the installed skill folder: 从已安装的 skill 目录直接运行分发脚本：

./scripts/codex-dev-dispatch "Inspect the repo and fix one issue."

Or with an explicit work directory: 或显式指定工作目录：

./scripts/codex-dev-dispatch --workdir /absolute/path "Fix the issue only in this directory."

Query status and summary: 查询状态和摘要：

./scripts/codex-dev-dispatch status <job-id>
./scripts/codex-dev-dispatch show <job-id>
./scripts/codex-dev-dispatch help

If installed with local wrappers, the same flow can be exposed as: 如果已安装本地包装命令，也可以这样使用：

codex-dev "Fix one issue and summarize the change."
codex-help
codex-dev-status <job-id>
codex-dev-show <job-id>

常见中文用法：

codex-dev "修复一个小问题并总结修改"
codex-dev --workdir /absolute/path "只在这个目录里完成修改"
codex-help

Environment | 环境变量

Optional environment variables: 可选环境变量：

• CODEX_DEV_DEFAULT_WORKDIR
• CODEX_DEV_JOBS_ROOT
• CODEX_DEV_CHAT_ID
• TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN
• CODEX_DEV_OPENCLAW_CONFIG

If TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN is unset, the worker will try to read botToken from CODEX_DEV_OPENCLAW_CONFIG and then from ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json. 如果 TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN 未设置，worker 会尝试先从 CODEX_DEV_OPENCLAW_CONFIG，再从 ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json 中读取 botToken。

Workdir behavior | 工作目录行为

• --workdir must be an absolute existing path
• Codex executes in that work directory
• If the work directory is inside a git repo, patch.txt is generated relative to the detected repo root

Idempotency | 幂等性

For write requests, prefer idempotent changes. If the requested content already exists, do not append or duplicate it; state that clearly in the summary. 对于写入型请求，优先保持幂等。如果目标内容已经存在，不要重复追加，并在摘要中明确说明。

Notes | 说明

• This publishable package contains the skill and helper scripts only
• OpenClaw agent bindings, Telegram bindings, and local workspace wrappers remain local installation details
• Use references/local-setup.md when you need to wire the installed skill into a local OpenClaw agent
• The package is intentionally generic: repository path, Telegram chat id, and default workdir are all local configuration
• 这个包刻意保持通用化：仓库路径、Telegram chat id 和默认工作目录都应在本地配置
• 这个社区包发布的是 skill 和脚本，不包含你的本地 agent 绑定状态
• 仓库路径、Telegram chat id、默认工作目录等都需要在本地自行配置
