Codex Project Manager Init

Codex Project Manager Init

Use this skill to initialize a repository for Codex Project Manager.

After this plugin is installed and enabled, this skill appears in the Codex slash command list. It is not a native /cpm-init command.

Workflow

1. Inspect the current repository state:

AGENTS.md
memories/
.agents/skills/
.codex/hooks.json

2. Ask the user for project rules to add to AGENTS.md.
   • If AGENTS.md is missing, create it.
   • If AGENTS.md exists, append only missing rules to ## Codex Project Manager Rules.
   • If the user provides no rules, skip AGENTS.md writes.
3. Ask whether to create optional memory module names under memories/.
   • Accept comma-separated or newline-separated module names.
   • Module names are project-specific components.
   • Create only memories/<module>/; do not create fixed topic files.
   • Long-term memory entries belong at memories/<module>/<topic>.md after the component and topic are clear.
   • If the user provides no modules, skip memory module creation.
4. Ensure the project-local skills directory is .agents/skills.
5. Ask before installing the optional hook into .codex/hooks.json.
   • If .codex/hooks.json already exists, do not overwrite it; report that manual merge is required.
6. Run:

python3 codex-plugin-dev/plugins/codex-project-manager/scripts/project_manager/init.py \
  --rules "<project rule>" \
  --module "<module name>" \
  --project-skills-dir .agents/skills

Add --rules once per project rule and --module once per requested module. Add --install-hook only after the user confirms hook installation.

7. Summarize the JSON statuses for agents, memories, project_skills, and hook.
8. Do not write global or personal memory.
