SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Getting a second opinion on a code change from an engine other than Claude requires manually invoking external tools and interpreting their output. This Skill runs one review round whose sole source is Codex, OpenAI's coding agent, and returns structured findings without modifying anything. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Single-source Codex review: Executes one read-only pass of the Codex CLI against a change, following the shared review-pipeline reference for running a round and reading its result. - Review-only guarantee: Never fixes what it reports; findings are handed back to the caller, who decides what to do next. - Use Case: A pipeline or user asks for a "codex review" on a finished branch before opening a pull request. The Skill runs the Codex pass and returns the findings so the author can triage them alongside other review sources. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run a codex review on the current change and return the findings.

FAQPage Schema

How do I get a Codex second opinion on a code change?▼

Invoke the codex-review skill deliberately on the change you want reviewed. It runs one read-only pass of the Codex CLI and returns the findings, leaving all fix decisions to you or the calling pipeline.

What is the difference between codex-review and multi-review?▼

codex-review uses Codex as its only source in a single round. multi-review combines Claude's angles, security angles, and a Codex pass in the same round with independent verification of findings.

Does codex-review fix the issues it finds?▼

No. The skill is strictly review-only: it returns the findings and never modifies the code. The caller decides whether and how to address each reported item.

When should I not trigger a codex review?▼

Do not use it as an automatic trigger on every change; it is meant to be invoked deliberately when asked. If you need Claude's and security angles too, use multi-review instead.
