Codex Runtime Rules
These Z Skills are native Codex workflows derived from github.com/zeveck/zskills at commit 14dea81da487b2904ea7d69a27295f1869206cdf. They are invoked by natural language or by naming the skill; examples that look like slash commands are only shorthand for the skill name.
Use Codex behavior first:
- Read the current repository before acting. Prefer existing project scripts, config, and conventions over the upstream examples.
- Never use Claude-only tools or assumptions: no
CronCreate, CronList, CronDelete, Agent/Task tool syntax, allowed-tools, .claude/settings.json, or automatic Claude hooks.
- Use sub-agents only when the user explicitly asks for agents, parallel work, or delegation. For Z Skills landing gates, prefer a fresh independent verification context when it is available without violating the current Codex delegation policy; otherwise run inline, disclose lower assurance, and do not auto-land unless the user accepts it.
- For isolation, create git worktrees explicitly with normal
git worktree commands. Do not rely on an isolation: "worktree" parameter.
- Config lookup order is project
.agents/zskills-config.json first, then project zskills-config.json, then legacy .codex/zskills-config.json, then legacy .claude/zskills-config.json only if already present. Do not create new .claude runtime config for Codex.
- Scheduling is not automatic in Codex. If the user asks for recurring runs, explain the schedule and ask before installing any local cron/system scheduler. For normal turns, perform the requested work now.
- Helper assets live at project
.agents/zskills-support by default. Use project-local scripts/* first; fall back to $CODEX_HOME/zskills-support only for explicit global installs or legacy setups.
- Preserve Codex safety rules: do not revert unrelated work, stage files by name, avoid destructive git commands, and verify from actual diffs/tests.
Detailed upstream text is archived in references/upstream-claude-adapted.md for edge cases and future diffs. Load it only when the concise workflow below is insufficient.
Playwright CLI
Quick Workflow
- Start or identify the target web app URL.
- Open a browser:
playwright-cli open <url>.
- Use
playwright-cli snapshot to get element refs before interacting.
- Interact with refs:
click, fill, type, press, select, drag, upload, hover.
- Capture evidence with
screenshot, tracing-start/tracing-stop, or snapshots when useful.
- Close or detach sessions when done.
References
Load only the relevant reference for advanced tasks:
- Request mocking:
references/request-mocking.md
- Running Playwright code:
references/running-code.md
- Session management:

- Storage state:
references/storage-state.md
- Test generation:
references/test-generation.md
- Tracing:
references/tracing.md
- Video recording:
references/video-recording.md
The playwright-cli binary is available in this environment; still check playwright-cli --help if syntax is uncertain.
Preserved Z Skills Invariants
- Snapshot/ref workflow comes before interactions.
- Use storage/session references for auth and persistent state.
- If the global binary fails, try the project-local or
npx playwright-cli equivalent.
