Teaching Suite for Codex
Codex adapter for the Teaching Skills suite (course design → build →
assess → deliver → reflect → improve). The vendored upstream content lives
under ts/; route through this file first.
This is the sibling Codex distribution of the Claude Code suite
YujxZJCN/teaching-skills. Same
workflow content, Codex-native packaging.
First Rule — load lazily
Do not load the whole suite by default. Select one workflow, read that
workflow's ts/<skill>/WORKFLOW.md, then load only the agent, reference, or
template files needed for the user's current stage. The vendored workflow entry
files are named WORKFLOW.md (not SKILL.md) so Codex registers only this one
router skill instead of every vendored workflow.
Non-negotiables (apply in every workflow)
These are the suite's standing rules. Read ts/shared/checkpoint_protocol.md
and ts/shared/pedagogy_foundations.md when a task touches them; never violate
them even when reading lazily:
- The professor is the pilot. Surface every consequential default at a
checkpoint; respect "just proceed"; never auto-finalize person-affecting output.
- No invented context. Empty learner/institution facts are asked for or
marked
[NEEDS PROFESSOR INPUT: …]; uncertain domain claims get [VERIFY: …].
- Person-affecting outputs are evidence-bound (feedback, letters,
interventions): only material the professor provided, no invented anecdotes,
verify-before-send reminder, and student data never enters the Course
Passport (
ts/shared/course_passport_schema.md).
- Integrity by design, not detection (
ts/shared/ai_era_integrity.md): no
AI-detection tools, ever.
- Evidence honesty. Student evaluations are biased small-N signal, not a score.
Course Passport & validators
State lives in course_passport.yaml (ts/shared/course_passport_schema.md),
not the conversation. The deterministic layer travels to Codex — run it when
Python 3 is available:
python3 ts/scripts/check_passport.py course_passport.yaml # structure + id mirrors
python3 ts/scripts/check_alignment_gate.py course_passport.yaml # Gate 1.5, A1–D3
python3 ts/scripts/build_dashboard.py course_passport.yaml # single-file HTML overview
Workflow Router
Choose the workflow by intent, then read its WORKFLOW.md:
| User intent |
Read first |
| Accreditation and program-assessment documentation for university professors |
ts/accreditation-mapper/WORKFLOW.md |
| Builds assessment instruments for university professors — pipeline Stage 3 |
ts/assessment-architect/WORKFLOW.md |
| Bilingual course-material maintenance for university professors — default EN ⇄ 简体中文, language-pair agnostic |
ts/bilingual-courseware/WORKFLOW.md |
| Learner and cohort analysis (学情分析) for university professors — cross-cutting support for design, builds, and the weekly loop |
ts/cohort-analyst/WORKFLOW.md |
| Backward course design for university professors |
ts/course-designer/WORKFLOW.md |
| Student-facing communication and packaging for university professors, derived entirely from the Course Passport |
ts/course-publisher/WORKFLOW.md |
| Slide deck production for university professors |
ts/deck-studio/WORKFLOW.md |
| Executable teaching-artifact builder for STEM professors — pipeline Stage 2 extension |
ts/lab-forge/WORKFLOW.md |
| Class-meeting materials builder for university professors |
ts/lesson-builder/WORKFLOW.md |
| Recorded-media scripting for university professors |
ts/media-scripter/WORKFLOW.md |
| During-semester student support for university professors |
ts/student-mentor/WORKFLOW.md |
| Specification-driven submission auditing for university professors |
ts/submission-auditor/WORKFLOW.md |
| Teaching-team management for university professors |
ts/ta-coordinator/WORKFLOW.md |
| Full teaching-lifecycle orchestrator for university professors |
ts/teaching-pipeline/WORKFLOW.md |
| Evidence-honest teaching reflection for university professors |
ts/teaching-reflector/WORKFLOW.md |
For a whole-course or multi-stage request ("teach / prepare my course", "new
semester"), start with ts/teaching-pipeline/WORKFLOW.md; it orchestrates the
others through the alignment and quality gates.
Claude-Style Alias Router
Codex does not install Claude slash commands, but this package emulates their
intent. If the request starts with a slash alias (/ts-exam) or a plain alias
(ts-exam), strip the alias token, read the matching ts/commands/<alias>.md
recipe, then route to the workflow below. The model: field in any recipe
frontmatter is a Claude hint only — Codex uses the current model.

What is vendored
ts/ contains every skill's WORKFLOW.md + agents/ + references/ +
templates/, the shared/ contracts (passport schema, gate protocols, pedagogy
foundations, AI-era integrity, checkpoint protocol), the tool-agnostic
scripts/ (validators + dashboard), the commands/ alias recipes, and
MODE_REGISTRY.md. The Claude Code plugin loader files are intentionally not
vendored. See manifest.json for the source commit pin.
