| name | codex-continue |
| description | Resume the current Codex harness task. Use when returning to a task, when the user asks what state we are in, or when the conversation has shifted between planning, implementation, and checking. |
Continue Current Task
Resume from the active task state instead of relying on chat memory.
-
Load compact state:
python3 scripts/codex_harness.py context --no-refresh
-
Inspect the active task:
python3 scripts/codex_harness.py task continue <task>
-
Route by current_phase, status, and artifacts:
- planning/design discussion -> keep or set
current_phase to planning
- ready implementation -> use
codex-before-dev, then implement
- implementation done -> use
codex-check
- durable behavior changed -> update specs/docs before finishing
-
Load detail only when needed:
python3 scripts/codex_harness.py context --dashboard
python3 scripts/codex_harness.py context --full
python3 scripts/codex_harness.py task agent-context <task> implement
Do not read handoff bodies by default. Handoffs are cross-session recovery files;
read them only when starting a new session, resuming after interruption, or when
the compact state says the handoff is needed for direction.
