Merge origin/dev: reconcile docs redesign with upstream skill changes
- Resolve conflicts: keep redesigned skills index, take dev's cs-aeo link
  fix, union of DOMAIN_SEO_CONTEXT entries in generate-docs.py
- Regenerate catalog on the merged tree (dev's agent/command description
  updates, removed ai-seo/release-manager/command-guide, restructured
  universal-scraping-architect)
- Update counters to post-merge truth from scripts/derive_counters.py:
  345 skills, 78 plugins (14 bundles + 64 standalone), 570+ Python tools
- Add redirects for upstream-removed pages (ai-seo -> aeo,
  release-manager -> changelog-generator, command-guide -> engineering index)
- Add compliance-os bundle to bundle tables; rebuild 78-plugin table from
  marketplace.json
- Teach the generator to rewrite repo-root-relative source links to GitHub
  URLs — mkdocs build --strict now passes with zero warnings

Agent Skills for OpenAI Codex CLI (2026) Install and use 345 agent skills with OpenAI Codex CLI. Engineering, marketing, product, and DevOps plugins for Codex.

Agent Skills for OpenAI Codex CLI

Use 345 production-ready agent skills with OpenAI Codex CLI. Every skill in this collection works natively with Codex via the .codex/skills/ directory format.


Quick Install

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/alirezarezvani/claude-skills.git
cd claude-skills

# Option 1: Install all skills for Codex
./scripts/codex-install.sh

# Option 2: Convert specific skills
./scripts/convert.sh --skill frontend-design --tool codex
./scripts/convert.sh --skill autoresearch-agent --tool codex

# Option 3: Convert all skills at once
./scripts/convert.sh --all --tool codex

How It Works

Codex reads agent skills from .codex/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md in your project or home directory. The convert.sh script transforms Claude Code's SKILL.md format into Codex-compatible instructions, preserving all workflows, slash commands, and references.


Top Skills for Codex Users

Engineering

Skill Codex Command What It Does
autoresearch-agent /ar:run Autonomous experiment loop — edit, evaluate, keep or revert. Karpathy-inspired.
pr-review-expert /review:full Multi-pass code review catching logic bugs, security issues, missing tests.
frontend-design /design:component Production-grade React/Tailwind UI with high design quality.
tdd-guide /tdd:start Red-green-refactor TDD workflow with coverage tracking.
senior-devops /devops:deploy IaC, CI/CD, monitoring, and incident response playbooks.
docker-development /docker:optimize Dockerfile optimization, multi-stage builds, container security.

Beyond Engineering

Skill Codex Command What It Does
content-creator /content:write SEO-optimized content with brand voice analysis.
cto-advisor /cto:assess Tech debt scoring, team scaling, architecture decisions.
agile-product-owner /po:story User stories, acceptance criteria, sprint planning.
research-summarizer /research:summarize Structured research → summary → citations workflow.

Codex-Specific Tips

AGENTS.md Fallback

If your Codex setup uses AGENTS.md instead of the skills directory, you can use the generated agents file:

# Copy the bundled AGENTS.md to your project
cp claude-skills/agents/AGENTS.md ~/.codex/AGENTS.md

Using with --full-auto

Skills work seamlessly with Codex's auto-approval mode:

# Run a skill in full-auto mode
codex exec --full-auto "Use the frontend-design skill to build a dashboard component"

# Run autoresearch overnight
codex exec --full-auto "Use autoresearch-agent to optimize src/api/search.py for response time"

Project-Level vs Global

# Project-level (only this repo)
cp -r claude-skills/.codex/skills/ ./.codex/skills/

# Global (available everywhere)
cp -r claude-skills/.codex/skills/ ~/.codex/skills/
