SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows OpenClaw to delegate complex coding tasks to a local OpenAI Codex CLI, enabling background execution, status monitoring, and interactive clarification.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Asynchronous Task Execution: Dispatch script building, code refactoring, or multi-step coding work to Codex without blocking OpenClaw.
  • Status Polling: Track the progress of coding tasks, check for output, and retrieve results.
  • Interactive Clarification: Relay clarifying questions from Codex to the user and provide answers to resume the task.
  • Use Case: You need to refactor a large Python codebase. Dispatch the refactoring task to Codex, continue working on other tasks in OpenClaw, and be notified when Codex has completed the refactoring or needs clarification.

Quick Start

Dispatch a coding task to Codex by running the codex-bridge-dispatch script with your desired prompt and working directory.

Frequently Asked Questions about codex-bridge

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I delegate coding tasks to Codex without blocking my workflow?▼

You can delegate coding tasks to Codex by dispatching them asynchronously. This allows background execution of script generation and refactoring while you continue other work uninterrupted.

Can I track the status of a Codex coding task after dispatching it?▼

Yes, you can track Codex coding task status through status polling. This monitors progress, checks for output, and retrieves results once the script generation or code edits are complete.

What is the best way to handle clarifying questions from Codex during code generation?▼

Handling Codex clarifying questions during code generation uses interactive question and answer capabilities. It relays questions from Codex to you, allowing you to provide answers to resume the task.

Do I need the codex CLI installed to use asynchronous code generation?▼

Yes, you need the codex CLI installed and accessible in your environment to use asynchronous code generation. The Skill dispatches and manages local coding tasks through this command line interface.

Can I use this for multi-step code refactoring on a large codebase?▼

Yes, you can use this for multi-step code refactoring on a large codebase. It dispatches complex refactoring work to Codex, continuing other tasks until notified of completion or needed clarification.
