What this skill does

Driving Codex is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the git-workflow sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/driving-codex/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when embedding codex/GPT into a pipeline (sonnet draft → codex audit, heterogeneous cross-vendor verification), probing which GPT models an account can run when the model picker or cache disagrees, choosing --sandbox / --skip-git-repo-check / model_reasoning_effort flags, parsing --json usage or --output-last-message, codex spend / モデル使い分け・コスト比較 (ccusage), or unsticking a hanging or failing codex exec. Triggers: codex exec, Codex CLI, gpt-5.

Who uses this skill

When should I use the Driving Codex skill?
Use Driving Codex when your Claude Code task falls under the Dev Tools category — specifically in the git workflow area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Driving Codex" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/tools/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Driving Codex skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Driving Codex is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Dev Tools category.
