migrate-to-codex
Migrates instruction files, skills, agents, and MCP config from another agent into Codex's own files, without touching the source agent's files.
What it actually does
- Migrates instruction files, skills, agents, and MCP config from another agent into Codex's own files (
AGENTS.md,.codex/,.agents/,~/.codex/) once you've picked a target.
When to use it — and when not to
Use it when
- You're moving a project from another agent — Claude Code in particular — into Codex and want the switching cost handled for you.
Not for
- You want to keep the source agent's setup intact for later — it's careful not to touch the source agent's files, but confirm that's still the behavior you expect before running it.
Agent compatibility
- Codex
Confirmed means the skill’s own source or vendor states it works with that agent. Portable means it only reaches that agent through the shared SKILL.md format and a directory convention — real, but a weaker claim. An agent with no entry here isn’t known to be unsupported; it simply isn’t documented either way, so nothing is claimed. Full model on Agent Skills Compatibility.
Requirements and operational surface
What it actually does at runtime
- Writes to Codex config paths (
AGENTS.md,.codex/,.agents/,~/.codex/) - Does not modify the source agent's files or unrelated config, per its own instructions

Other skills from the same source.
- gh-fix-ciInspects failing PR checks with gh, fetches the GitHub Actions logs, summarizes the failure, then proposes a fix plan and implements it only after explicit approval.
- gh-address-commentsFinds the open PR for your current branch and works through its review comments with the gh CLI, checking gh auth status first rather than failing halfway through.
- playwrightDrives a real browser from the terminal for navigation, form filling, screenshots, and data extraction — CLI-first, and won't write @playwright/test files unless asked.
- security-threat-modelProduces a repository-grounded threat model — trust boundaries, assets, attacker capabilities, abuse paths, mitigations — written to a markdown file. Roughly half its description is negative triggers.
- pdfReads, creates, and reviews PDFs where layout matters, rendering pages for visual checks rather than only extracting text.
