Browse available Codex skills and install them from a curated list or a specified GitHub location. Supports experimental skills, private repositories with credentials, and installing several skill folders in one operation.
Install Codex skills into $CODEX_HOME/skills from a curated list or a GitHub repo path. Use when a user asks to list installable skills, install a curated skill, or install a skill from another repo (including private repos).
Review the instructions the agent will receive before you install.
Helps install skills. By default these are from https://github.com/openai/skills/tree/main/skills/.curated, but users can also provide other locations. Experimental skills live in https://github.com/openai/skills/tree/main/skills/.experimental and can be installed the same way.
Use the helper scripts based on the task:
.curated, but you can pass --path skills/.experimental when they ask about experimental skills.Install skills with the helper scripts.
When listing skills, output approximately as follows, depending on the context of the user's request. If they ask about experimental skills, list from .experimental instead of .curated and label the source accordingly:
"""
Skills from {repo}:
After installing a skill, tell the user it will be available on their next turn.
All of these scripts use network, so when running in the sandbox, request escalation when running them.
