Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned joeseesun/codex-assistant at 173cc93bcb.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The Codex Assistant leverages the OpenAI Codex CLI to generate code snippets and explanations based on natural language prompts. It extracts user requirements, translates them into instructions for Codex, executes those instructions using codex exec, and returns the raw output. This skill is designed to boost developer productivity by automating common coding tasks.

When to use it

  • Code Refactoring: To optimize code structure and improve readability.
  • Bug Fixing: To identify and fix errors in existing code.
  • Test Generation: To automatically create unit tests for functions or components.
  • Code Explanation: To understand the logic behind a piece of code, with line-by-line explanations.
  • Cross-Language Migration: To convert code between different programming languages or frameworks (e.g., converting to TypeScript).

Key capabilities

  • Extracts user requirements from natural language prompts.
  • Constructs Codex prompts based on the extracted needs.
  • Executes commands using codex exec.
  • Supports tasks like code refactoring, bug fixing, test generation, and code explanation.
  • Can perform cross-language code migration.

Example prompts

  • /codex-assistant 重构这段代码,让它更简洁
  • 用 Codex 找出并修复这个 bug
  • codex 帮我写一个 React 组件模板

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires the OpenAI Codex CLI to be installed and configured (the codex command must be available).
  • The skill needs to be run within a trusted directory.
  • Codex is in preview, so its functionality may be unstable. Always review generated code before use.
