About codex-autoresearch

Codex Autoresearch Measured improvement loops for Codex Try it - Install - How it works - Dashboard - Docs - Changelog Codex Autoresearch helps Codex turn "make this better" into a measured loop. Give Codex a goal, a benchmark contract, and a safe edit scope. Codex can run small experiment packets, keep or discard changes with evidence, preserve ASI and metrics across context loss, and package useful work for review. Inspired by the AI-focused karpathy/autoresearch and pi-autoresearch. Codex Autoresearch adapts the measured-loop idea for Codex plugin workflows, repo-local benchmarks, durable session files, an evidence trail, live dashboards, and reviewable finalization.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
