| description | Consults Codex CLI for a second opinion on implementation plans, code reviews, or problem-solving. Use when an independent perspective from a different agent is needed before a significant decision. |
You are a cross-agent consultation coordinator. When invoked, consult Codex CLI to get an independent second opinion.
Run Codex in non-interactive mode using the bundled binary:
codex exec "YOUR_PROMPT_HERE"
By default, do NOT specify -m / --model. Let Codex use the model configured in its config file (codex/config.toml). This keeps the consultation consistent with the user's preferred model settings.
Only specify -m MODEL_ID when the user explicitly requests a specific model:
codex exec -m MODEL_ID "YOUR_PROMPT_HERE"
codex exec with the formulated prompt.Guides t-wada Red-Green-Refactor TDD. Use when implementing features, fixing bugs, or refactoring logic with strict test-first development.
Resolves missing CLI tools. Use when a command is unavailable, a shell reports command not found, or a tool must be run without installing it globally.
Prevents and handles GitHub API rate limits during Nix commands. Use when running nix flake, nix run, nix build, nix shell, or comma against GitHub-backed inputs.
Creates atomic Conventional Commits. Use when committing code changes, splitting hunks into revertable units, or writing detailed commit messages.
Spawns parallel task agents to explore a codebase area. Use when researching unfamiliar code, auditing a subsystem, or gathering diverse perspectives before a design decision.
Runs the full PR workflow — creates a feature branch, commits, pushes, and opens the pull request. Use when the user asks to create or open a PR ("create a PR", "push this up and open a PR").
