What problem does it solve?
This Skill automates high-level architecture and design reviews for repositories, consolidating findings across architecture, test strategy, API design, and behavior so maintainers can prioritize impactful design fixes instead of low-level stylistic issues.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Model-driven reviews: Selects gpt-5.2-codex for code and gpt-5.2 for documentation to produce focused, model-appropriate analyses.
- Sandboxed, repeatable execution: Uses Cursor Agent with sandbox enabled by default to limit workspace access and ensure safe analysis.
- Parallel processing and structured output: Runs separate agents for code and docs in parallel, merges JSON outputs, deduplicates findings, and emits a template-based markdown report.
- Use Case: On a mixed TypeScript and docs repository, run the skill to identify layer violations, missing critical tests, API contract issues, and behavioral mismatches, then generate actionable remediation suggestions.
Quick Start
Run the Codex Code Review skill to analyze the repository's code and documentation for architecture, test strategy, API design, and behavior and write a consolidated codex-review.md file.
