codex-agents-md-authoring
Use before editing AGENTS.md files or rules that change how Codex reads standing instructions.
Procedure
- Read
references/agents-md-scope.mdbefore changing instruction scope. - Read
references/plan-splitting.mdwhen a task has multiple workflow types, subsystems, or phase contracts. - Keep
AGENTS.mdshort, stable, and cross-project safe. - Move repeatable procedures to skills, command policy to
.codex/rules, and hard enforcement to hooks. - Do not store volatile task state in
AGENTS.md; put it in timestamped plans or workspace artifacts. - For large plans, require a parent plan that lists child plan paths.
