Why this exists

Codex skills usually need two things at the start: a clean workspace shape and the right official docs close at hand. This starter provides both without pretending to be a fully generated app.

Included files

  • Entry README with Codex-specific doc links
  • docs/README.md for implementation-facing notes
  • scripts/README.md to define automation conventions
  • .env.example for environment variables
  • Minimal package.json placeholder for workspace compatibility

Official docs and references

  • Codex developer page
  • Responses API reference
  • Code generation guide
  • Codex model page
  • Shell tool guide

Quick start

cp -R ./skills/codex/starter-codex-skill ./my-codex-skill
cd ./my-codex-skill
ls

When to use it

  • Use it when starting a Codex-focused skill from scratch
  • Use it when you want official links embedded in the project from day one
  • Use it when the team needs a stable workspace shape before adding logic

Status

This starter is intentionally lightweight and docs-first. It is a seed workspace, not a code generator.
