Evaluate A Tool
- Inspect
package.json, existing configuration, and current project capabilities.
- Explain the concrete gap the tool would fill.
- Confirm normal long-term local use is free and open-source where possible.
- Check whether an existing dependency or a small local script solves the gap.
- Prefer small, maintained packages with limited permissions.
- Show install commands, scripts, configuration files, and risks before installation.
- Wait for explicit approval before installing optional quality tooling.
- Never modify secrets or global Codex configuration without explicit approval.
- Keep MCP configuration project-level in
.codex/config.toml.
Do not add a dependency for one-off styling or a task that existing browser and build tools can verify.
