How to use skills
- Install all skills (recommended for first-time setup) or pick a category/skill.
- Codex detects installed skill changes automatically; restart it if a skill does not appear.
- Use
/skillsor$<skill-name>for explicit invocation, or describe a request that matches the skill.
Global AGENTS.MD ledger (not a skill)
Codex can use a single ledger file that applies across projects. It lives at
~/.codex/AGENTS.MD (Codex home directory).
- Create it once with
npx codex-skills init-ledger. - At the start of each assistant turn, open it and refresh goal, constraints, decisions, and state.
- Update it when the goal, constraints, decisions, Done/Now/Next, or key tool outcomes change; keep it short and factual and mark unknowns as
UNCONFIRMED. - Include a brief "Ledger Snapshot" in replies (Goal + Now/Next + Open Questions); show the full ledger only when it changes or when asked.
