What problem does it solve?

Reconciles editor tooling and the repository's AI workflows so developers can run Codex/OpenAI tasks, access agents and skills, and create structured task briefs without leaving VS Code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Repo-local companion: Provides an AI Repo sidebar that surfaces agents, skills, guidelines, and quick actions.

Quick Start

Open the repository in VS Code and run the OpenAI Repo Companion to create a Codex task brief for the current file and copy it to the clipboard.
