Codex Orchestrator
WarnAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.
Overview
The skill matches its stated purpose, but it directs the agent to launch and approve a full-auto background coding agent without clear user-approval or scope limits.
Only use this skill if you are comfortable with the assistant launching background Codex sessions that may edit code or run commands. Before use, set a specific working directory and task, avoid automatic yes/default responses, and require user approval for launches, resumes, and any prompt that changes files or permissions.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
A background Codex session could change files, run commands, or continue work in a repository with limited user visibility.
This directs the agent to run a coding agent in full-auto mode in the background, which can perform code changes or command execution without the main agent staying in the loop.
Always launch Codex in a background PTY session ... command:"codex exec --full-auto '<PROMPT>'"
Require explicit user confirmation before launching full-auto Codex, define the exact working directory and task scope, and prefer safer approval modes unless the user opts in.
The agent may approve changes or default choices that the user did not review.
The skill provides a workflow for answering prompts, including approval-like prompts, without instructing the agent to first obtain user approval.
If Codex is stuck at a prompt: ... process action:submit sessionId:<id> data:"y"
Only submit affirmative or default prompt responses after showing the prompt to the user and receiving explicit confirmation.
A Codex session could continue or be restarted beyond the user's immediate attention, carrying forward stale context or making further changes.
The workflow supports recurring monitoring and resuming long-running or prior agent sessions, but does not clearly bound duration, cleanup, or when resume is allowed.
Check progress regularly (e.g., via cron or manual check) ... Run `codex resume --last`
Add explicit stop conditions, time limits, session cleanup, and user confirmation before resuming or scheduling checks.
Behavior depends on the locally installed Codex tool and process-control environment rather than code reviewed in this artifact set.
The skill has no packaged code, but its documented workflow depends on external Codex/process tooling, so users must rely on whatever local binaries and process controls are already present.
Required binaries (all must exist): none ... No install spec — this is an instruction-only skill.
Document required tools explicitly and ensure the installed Codex CLI comes from a trusted source before using the skill.
