FAQPage Schema

How do I manage local Codex skills from the CLI?▼

Local Codex skills are managed from the CLI by listing, adding, removing, editing, searching, and syncing files across user and project scopes using interactive wizards and enforced YAML frontmatter.

How do I add a new skill with YAML frontmatter to my Codex project?▼

Add a new skill with YAML frontmatter by running the guided creation wizard, which enforces required SKILL.md metadata templates and performs safe file operations to ensure knowledge consistency.

What is the difference between user and project scopes for local skills?▼

User scopes store skills globally in ~/.codex/skills, while project scopes store them locally in .codex/skills, allowing you to sync and activate context-loaded knowledge per project or across all projects.

Can I search and sync existing Codex skills across different directories?▼

Search and sync existing Codex skills across user and project directories using the CLI, which enforces YAML frontmatter validation and robust error handling to keep local skills up-to-date and consistent.

What are the limitations of managing skills with YAML frontmatter in local directories?▼

Managing skills with YAML frontmatter requires strict metadata enforcement in SKILL.md files, meaning operations fail if frontmatter is invalid or if file operations encounter directory permission errors.

Does the Codex skill manager support interactive wizards for skill creation?▼

The Codex skill manager supports interactive wizards for skill creation, guiding users through frontmatter templates and safe file operations to maintain consistent local skills across user and project scopes.
