Overview

planning-with-files works with Codex as a personal skill in ~/.codex/skills/.

Installation

Codex auto-discovers skills from .codex/skills/ directories. Two installation methods:

Method 1: Workspace Installation (Recommended)

Share the skill with your entire team by adding it to your repository:

# In your project repository
git clone https://github.com/OthmanAdi/planning-with-files.git /tmp/planning-with-files

# Copy the Codex skill to your repo
cp -r /tmp/planning-with-files/.codex .

# Commit to share with team
git add .codex/
git commit -m "Add planning-with-files skill for Codex"
git push

# Clean up
rm -rf /tmp/planning-with-files

Now everyone on your team using Codex will have access to the skill!

Method 2: Personal Installation

Install just for yourself:

# Clone the repo

cp -r /tmp/planning-with-files/.codex/skills/planning-with-files ~/.codex/skills/

# Clean up
rm -rf /tmp/planning-with-files
