Codex Read Skill

Read the response from Codex and integrate findings.

Steps

Before any file operations, resolve the .agent-collab directory so commands work outside the project root:

bash

AGENT_COLLAB_DIR="${AGENT_COLLAB_DIR:-}"
if [ -n "$AGENT_COLLAB_DIR" ]; then
  if [ -d "$AGENT_COLLAB_DIR/.agent-collab" ]; then
    AGENT_COLLAB_DIR="$AGENT_COLLAB_DIR/.agent-collab"
  elif [ ! -d "$AGENT_COLLAB_DIR" ]; then
    AGENT_COLLAB_DIR=""
  fi
fi

if [ -z "$AGENT_COLLAB_DIR" ]; then
  AGENT_COLLAB_DIR="$(pwd)"
  while [ "$AGENT_COLLAB_DIR" != "/" ] && [ ! -d "$AGENT_COLLAB_DIR/.agent-collab" ]; do
    AGENT_COLLAB_DIR="$(dirname "$AGENT_COLLAB_DIR")"
  done
  AGENT_COLLAB_DIR="$AGENT_COLLAB_DIR/.agent-collab"
fi

If $AGENT_COLLAB_DIR does not exist, stop and ask for the project root.

1. Check Status

Read $AGENT_COLLAB_DIR/status:

•idle: No pending task. Inform user.
•pending: Codex hasn't started. Check Codex pane.
•working: Codex still processing. Wait.
•done: Proceed to read response.

2. Read Response

Read $AGENT_COLLAB_DIR/responses/response.md and parse:

•Task type completed
•Findings/output
•Any code produced
•Recommendations

3. Present to User

Summarize clearly based on task type:

For CODE_REVIEW:

•Bugs/issues with severity
•Security concerns
•Performance issues
•Suggested improvements

For IMPLEMENT:

•What was implemented
•Approach taken
•Integration instructions

For PLAN_REVIEW:

•Critique summary
•Identified risks
•Alternative suggestions

4. Integrate (if applicable)

For implementations:

•Ask if user wants to integrate
•Apply changes if yes
•Run relevant tests

5. Reset Status

Write idle to $AGENT_COLLAB_DIR/status

6. Next Steps

Suggest appropriate follow-up:

•Reviews: Address issues found
•Implementations: Test and validate
•Plan reviews: Iterate on plan
