What this skill does


# Codex Collaborator

Collaborate with Codex CLI for objective, multi-perspective analysis.

## Core Principles

### Objective Dialogue

Request Codex to provide **unbiased, objective analysis**:

-   Ask for honest critique, not validation
-   Request counterarguments and potential flaws
-   Value disagreement as a path to better decisions

### Iterative Refinement

Continue discussion until convergence—no fixed number of rounds.

## Workflow

### 1. Frame the Question

Include:

-   Context and constraints
-   Specific decision point
-   **Request for objectivity**: "Be critical. Point out flaws. Don't defer to any assumed preference."

### 2. Execute Codex

```bash
codex exec "YOUR_PROMPT" --sandbox read-only
```

### 3. Analyze & Iterate

After each response:

-   Identify disagreements and new perspectives
-   Formulate follow-up questions if needed
-   Continue until a clear synthesis emerges

### 4. Synthesize

Combine insights:

-   Areas of consensus
-   Unresolved disagreements
-   Final recommendation with rationale

## Prompt Template

```
[TOPIC/QUESTION]

Context: [CONTEXT]

Important: Provide objective analysis. Be critical and point out flaws.
Don't defer to any assumed preference. If you disagree, say so clearly.
```

## Best Practices

-   Explicitly request objectivity in every prompt
-   Challenge responses with counterarguments
-   Probe for hidden issues
-   Value uncertainty over false confidence
