oh-my-codex (OMX) - Multi-Agent Orchestration for Codex CLI

When to use this skill

• Orchestrating complex multi-agent workflows with OpenAI Codex CLI
• Running parallel team workers in tmux for coordinated task execution
• Using persistent MCP servers for state, memory, and code intelligence
• Executing staged pipelines (plan → prd → exec → verify → fix)
• Leveraging role-based agent prompts for specialized tasks

---

Quick Start

Scenario: Platform setup for a Unity3D project

# Step 1: Install oh-my-codex
npm install -g oh-my-codex
omx setup

# Step 2: Confirm diagnostics pass
omx doctor

# Step 3: Launch and run your first Unity3D task
omx --xhigh --madmax
# Then inside Codex:
# $autopilot "scaffold a Unity3D input handler using the new Input System"

1. Core Concepts

Role Prompts (30 Agents)

Agent Tier	Agents	Use Case
Core Development	architect, planner, executor, debugger, verifier, explore	Main development workflow
Quality Assurance	style-reviewer, quality-reviewer, api-reviewer, security-reviewer, performance-reviewer	Code review lane
Domain Experts	dependency-expert, test-engineer, build-fixer, designer, writer, qa-tester	Specialized tasks
Product Strategy	product-manager, ux-researcher, product-analyst, information-architect	Product planning

Workflow Skills (40+)

Skill	Trigger	Description
autopilot	$autopilot	Full autonomous execution from idea to working code
ralph	$ralph	Self-referential loop with verifier verification until completion
ultrawork	$ulw	Maximum parallelism with parallel agent orchestration
team	$team	N coordinated agents using Codex CLI native teams
plan	$plan	Strategic planning with consensus and review modes
research	$research	Parallel scientist agents for comprehensive research
tdd	$tdd	Test-first development with red-green-refactor cycle
build-fix	$build-fix	Fix build errors, type errors, and toolchain failures
code-review	$code-review	Comprehensive code review across all quality dimensions
security-review	$security-review	Security audit focusing on vulnerabilities and trust boundaries
cancel	$cancel	Stop execution modes and clear active state

MCP Servers

Server	Purpose
omx_state	Persistent mode lifecycle state
omx_memory	Memory + notepad surfaces for long-running sessions
omx_code_intel	Code intelligence and context
omx_trace	Execution tracing and debugging

2. Installation & Setup

Prerequisites

• macOS or Linux (Windows via WSL2)
• Node.js >= 20
• Codex CLI installed (npm install -g @openai/codex)
• Codex auth configured

Install oh-my-codex

npm install -g oh-my-codex
omx setup
omx doctor

Recommended Launch Profile

# Trusted environment with high reasoning
omx --xhigh --madmax

---

3. Usage Patterns

Role Prompts (Inside Codex)

/prompts:architect "analyze current auth boundaries"
/prompts:executor "implement input validation in login"
/prompts:security-reviewer "audit OAuth flow"

Workflow Skills

$plan "ship OAuth callback safely"
$autopilot "implement user registration"
$team 3:executor "fix all TypeScript errors"

Team Mode (Terminal)

# Start parallel team workers
omx team 4:executor "parallelize a multi-module refactor"

# Monitor team status
omx team status <team-name>

# Resume team work
omx team resume <team-name>

# Shutdown team
omx team shutdown <team-name>

---

4. Launch Flags

Flag	Description
--yolo	Fast execution, minimal verification
--high	High reasoning effort
--xhigh	Extra-high reasoning effort
--madmax	Maps to Codex --dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox
--force	Force operation
--dry-run	Preview without execution
--verbose	Verbose output

---

5. Staged Pipeline

OMX implements a structured execution pipeline:

team-plan → team-prd → team-exec → team-verify → team-fix

1. Plan: Strategic decomposition of work
2. PRD: Product requirements definition
3. Exec: Parallel execution by team workers
4. Verify: Validation of deliverables
5. Fix: Automated error resolution

---

6. Hook Extensions (v0.4.0+)

Native Lifecycle Events

• session-start / session-end / session-idle
• turn-complete

Plugin Workflow

# Enable hook plugins
OMX_HOOK_PLUGINS=1 omx hooks test

# Hook commands
omx hooks init     # Initialize hooks
omx hooks status   # Check hook status
omx hooks validate # Validate configuration
omx hooks test     # Test hook execution

Plugin files: .omx/hooks/*.mjs

---

7. Configuration

AGENTS.md Injection

By default, OMX injects project-level AGENTS.md:

-c model_instructions_file="<cwd>/AGENTS.md"

Environment Controls

# Disable AGENTS.md injection
OMX_BYPASS_DEFAULT_SYSTEM_PROMPT=0 omx

# Custom instructions file
OMX_MODEL_INSTRUCTIONS_FILE=/path/to/instructions.md omx

---
