Codex Collab

What it does

codex-collab connects Claude with Codex via the codex app-server JSON-RPC protocol, enabling the agent to run prompts, launch background runs, perform PR-style code reviews, and collaborate in parallel on development tasks. It provides CLI commands to start threads, resume work, check progress, and fetch outputs so agents can delegate lengthy or tool-enabled work to Codex.

When to use it

Use this skill when you want a non-Claude perspective or specialized Codex tooling for code reviews, automated edits, implementation tasks, or long-running research jobs. It is suitable for: PR reviews, bulk code changes, automated testing runs, and research where Codex's environment-based tooling helps.

What's included

• Scripts: CLI orchestration documented in the SKILL.md (run, review, jobs, progress, output, approve).
• References: Usage examples, progress output formats, and recommended flags for background execution.
• Instructions: Guidance on when to run in background vs foreground, resume semantics, handling approvals, and error recovery.

Compatible agents

Likely compatible with agents that can spawn background tasks and run shell commands (Claude Code, Copilot/Codex-capable agents, CLI-capable assistants).
