About codex-skills

Codex skills catalog Personal Codex skills (drop-in folders under ). Catalog: https://jmerta.github.io/codex-skills/ How it works Codex discovers skills from (user scope) and in repos (repo scope). The standard is (repo) and (user). Legacy is still supported. Only , , and the SKILL.md path are injected into context; bodies and are not auto-loaded (Codex can open/read them when needed). Enable skills (Codex CLI) Check: (look for ) Enable for the current run: Enable permanently: add to : Global AGENTS.MD ledger (not a skill) Codex also supports a single, global ledger file that applies across projects. This is not a skill and does not live in the skills catalog. Create it Location (Codex home directory): macOS/Linux: Windows (PowerShell): Working with the ledger Keep exactly one ledger at so it applies to all projects. At the start of each assistant turn: open the ledger and refresh it with the current goal, constraints/assumptions, decisions, and state. Update it again whenever any of these change: goal, constraints/a

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.
