FAQPage Schema
How do I install Codex skills from a GitHub repository?

To install Codex skills from a GitHub repository, you can use an automation script to fetch and place the skill directly into the $CODEX_HOME/skills directory from a specified repo path.

Can I install skills from private GitHub repositories?

Yes, you can install skills from private GitHub repositories by providing optional token-based authentication through environment variables to grant the necessary GitHub API access.

What is the best way to list available Codex skills before installation?

The best way to list available Codex skills is by running the installer to query curated lists or GitHub repositories, displaying all installable skills before you make a selection.

Do I need network access to automate Codex skill installation?

Installing curated Codex skills provides pre-selected options from a maintained list, while installing from a custom repo path lets you target any specific GitHub repository directly.

Why does my Codex skill installation fail when accessing a private repo?
