SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps unblock tasks that require elevated permissions or network access, which are often restricted in sandboxed environments, by guiding the user on how to re-run commands with the necessary privileges.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Permission Escalation: Guides users to re-run commands with elevated access (e.g., network, git push, systemd) when initial attempts fail due to restrictions.
  • Context Preservation: Ensures that the user can resume their task without losing session context after escalating permissions.
  • Use Case: If Codex fails to push code changes to a Git repository due to network restrictions, this Skill will instruct the user on how to restart the process with the appropriate flags to bypass these restrictions.

Quick Start

Ask the user to resend the command prefixed with if the request came via Telegram.
