🆕 Codex now officially supports skills Skills are reusable bundles of instructions, scripts, and resources that help Codex complete specific tasks. You can call a skill directly with $.skill-name, or let Codex choose the right one based on your prompt.
Following the standard, a skill is just a folder: for instructions + metadata, with optional scripts, references, and assets. We’re looking forward to collaborating on the standard so it’s easy to share and use skill across different tools.
You can install scripts for just yourself in (~/.codex/skills), or for everyone working on a project in (repo_path/.codex/skills). We’ve also bundled a few handy system skills with Codex, such as plan, skill-creator, and skill-installer.
Update to the latest Codex to use skills. We’re shipping today with a few curated skills inspired by what’s popular internally at OpenAI. Install them with $.skill-installer. We'll be adding examples below!
To have Codex work on your API spec implementation or verify your implementation against the spec. $.skill-installer notion-spec-to-implementation
Have Codex read and update your Linear tickets. $.skill-installer linear
Have Codex automatically fix GitHub CI failures $.skill-installer gh-fix-ci
