- Aspnet CoreOpenAIOfficialBuild, review, refactor, or architect ASP.NET Core web applications using current official guidance for .NET web development. Use when working on Blazor Web Apps, Razor Pages, MVC, Minimal APIs, controller-based Web APIs, SignalR, gRPC, middleware, dependency injection, configuration, authentication, authorization, testing, performance, deployment, or ASP.NET Core upgrades.
- AtlasOpenAIOfficialmacOS-only AppleScript control for the ChatGPT Atlas desktop app. Use only when the user explicitly asks to control Atlas tabs/bookmarks/history on macOS and the "ChatGPT Atlas" app is installed; do not trigger for general browser tasks or non-macOS environments.
- Build ThingsOpenAIOfficialGenerate a Codex Super Bowl merch redemption URL (tokenized) and open it. Use when a user asks to redeem Super Bowl/Codex merch, needs a redemption token, or wants the merch redemption link.
- Chatgpt AppsOpenAIOfficialBuild, scaffold, refactor, and troubleshoot ChatGPT Apps SDK applications that combine an MCP server and widget UI. Use when Codex needs to design tools, register UI resources, wire the MCP Apps bridge or ChatGPT compatibility APIs, apply Apps SDK metadata or CSP or domain settings, or produce a docs-aligned project scaffold.
- Cli CreatorOpenAIOfficialBuild a composable CLI for Codex from API docs, an OpenAPI spec, existing curl examples, an SDK, a web app, an admin tool, or a local script. Use when the user wants Codex to create a command-line tool that can run from any repo, expose composable read/write commands, return stable JSON, manage auth, and pair with a companion skill.
- Cloudflare DeployOpenAIOfficialDeploy applications and infrastructure to Cloudflare using Workers, Pages, and related platform services. Use when the user asks to deploy, host, publish, or set up a project on Cloudflare.
- Codex Readiness Integration TestOpenAIOfficialRun the Codex Readiness integration test. Use when you need an end-to-end agentic loop with build/test scoring.
- Codex Readiness Unit TestOpenAIOfficialRun the Codex Readiness unit test report. Use when you need deterministic checks plus in-session LLM evals for AGENTS.md/PLANS.md.
- Create PlanOpenAIOfficialCreate a concise plan. Use when a user explicitly asks for a plan related to a coding task.
- Define GoalOpenAIOfficialHelp the user define a concrete, measurable goal before starting work, especially when they ask to use the goal tool, create a goal, set an objective, clarify success criteria, or turn a fuzzy intention into a quantitative outcome. Use this skill for goal creation and goal refinement only; it does not manage durable snapshots, decision logs, or long-running execution artifacts.
- Develop Web GameOpenAIOfficialUse when Codex is building or iterating on a web game (HTML/JS) and needs a reliable development + testing loop: implement small changes, run a Playwright-based test script with short input bursts and intentional pauses, inspect screenshots/text, and review console errors with render_game_to_text.
- DocOpenAIOfficialUse when the task involves reading, creating, or editing `.docx` documents, especially when formatting or layout fidelity matters; prefer `python-docx` plus the bundled `scripts/render_docx.py` for visual checks.
- FigmaOpenAIOfficialUse the Figma MCP server to fetch design context, screenshots, variables, and assets from Figma, and to translate Figma nodes into production code. Trigger when a task involves Figma URLs, node IDs, design-to-code implementation, or Figma MCP setup and troubleshooting.
- Figma Code Connect ComponentsOpenAIOfficialConnects Figma design components to code components using Code Connect mapping tools. Use when user says "code connect", "connect this component to code", "map this component", "link component to code", "create code connect mapping", or wants to establish mappings between Figma designs and code implementations. For canvas writes via `use_figma`, use `figma-use`.
- Figma Create Design System RulesOpenAIOfficialGenerates custom design system rules for the user's codebase. Use when user says "create design system rules", "generate rules for my project", "set up design rules", "customize design system guidelines", or wants to establish project-specific conventions for Figma-to-code workflows. Requires Figma MCP server connection.
- Figma Create New FileOpenAIOfficialCreate a new blank Figma file. Use when the user wants to create a new Figma design or FigJam file, or when you need a new file before calling use_figma. Handles plan resolution via whoami if needed. Usage â /figma-create-new-file [editorType] [fileName] (e.g. /figma-create-new-file figjam My Whiteboard)
- Figma Generate DesignOpenAIOfficialUse this skill alongside figma-use when the task involves translating an application page, view, or multi-section layout into Figma. Triggers: 'write to Figma', 'create in Figma from code', 'push page to Figma', 'take this app/page and build it in Figma', 'create a screen', 'build a landing page in Figma', 'update the Figma screen to match code'.
- Figma Generate LibraryOpenAIOfficialBuild or update a professional-grade design system in Figma from a codebase. Use when the user wants to create variables/tokens, build component libraries, set up theming (light/dark modes), document foundations, or reconcile gaps between code and Figma. This skill teaches WHAT to build and in WHAT ORDER â it complements the `figma-use` skill which teaches HOW to call the Plugin API.
- Figma Implement DesignOpenAIOfficialTranslates Figma designs into production-ready application code with 1:1 visual fidelity. Use when implementing UI code from Figma files, when user mentions "implement design", "generate code", "implement component", provides Figma URLs, or asks to build components matching Figma specs. For Figma canvas writes via `use_figma`, use `figma-use`.
- Figma UseOpenAIOfficial**MANDATORY prerequisite** â you MUST invoke this skill BEFORE every `use_figma` tool call. NEVER call `use_figma` directly without loading this skill first. Skipping it causes common, hard-to-debug failures. Trigger whenever the user wants to perform a write action or a unique read action that requires JavaScript execution in the Figma file context â e.g.
- Frontend SkillOpenAIOfficialUse when the task asks for a visually strong landing page, website, app, prototype, demo, or game UI. This skill enforces restrained composition, image-led hierarchy, cohesive content structure, and tasteful motion while avoiding generic cards, weak branding, and UI clutter.
- Gh Address CommentsOpenAIOfficialHelp address review/issue comments on the open GitHub PR for the current branch using gh CLI; verify gh auth first and prompt the user to authenticate if not logged in.
- Gh Fix CIOpenAIOfficialInspect GitHub PR checks with gh, pull failing GitHub Actions logs, summarize failure context, then create a fix plan and implement after user approval. Use when a user asks to debug or fix failing PR CI/CD checks on GitHub Actions and wants a plan + code changes; for external checks (e.g., Buildkite), only report the details URL and mark them out of scope.
- Gitlab Address CommentsOpenAIOfficialHelp address review/issue comments on the open GitLab MR for the current branch using glab CLI. Use when the user wants help addressing review/issue comments on an open GitLab MR
- Hatch PetOpenAIOfficialCreate, repair, validate, visually QA, and package Codex-compatible animated pets and pet spritesheets from character art, generated images, company or prospect brand cues, or visual references.

- Openai DocsOpenAIOfficialUse when the user asks how to build with OpenAI products or APIs, asks about Codex itself or choosing Codex surfaces, needs up-to-date official documentation with citations, help choosing the latest model for a use case, or model upgrade and prompt-upgrade guidance; use OpenAI docs MCP tools for non-Codex docs questions, use the Codex manual helper first for broad Codex self-knowledge, and…
- PDFOpenAIOfficialUse when tasks involve reading, creating, or reviewing PDF files where rendering and layout matter; prefer visual checks by rendering pages (Poppler) and use Python tools such as `reportlab`, `pdfplumber`, and `pypdf` for generation and extraction.
- PlaywrightOpenAIOfficialUse when the task requires automating a real browser from the terminal (navigation, form filling, snapshots, screenshots, data extraction, UI-flow debugging) via `playwright-cli` or the bundled wrapper script.
- Playwright InteractiveOpenAIOfficialPersistent browser and Electron interaction through `js_repl` for fast iterative UI debugging.
- Plugin CreatorOpenAIOfficialCreate and scaffold plugin directories for Codex with a required `.codex-plugin/plugin.json`, optional plugin folders/files, and baseline placeholders you can edit before publishing or testing. Use when Codex needs to create a new local plugin, add optional plugin structure, or generate or update repo-root `.agents/plugins/marketplace.json` entries for plugin ordering and availability metadata.

- Security Best PracticesOpenAIOfficialPerform language and framework specific security best-practice reviews and suggest improvements. Trigger only when the user explicitly requests security best practices guidance, a security review/report, or secure-by-default coding help. Trigger only for supported languages (python, javascript/typescript, go). Do not trigger for general code review, debugging, or non-security tasks.
- Security Ownership MapOpenAIOfficialAnalyze git repositories to build a security ownership topology (people-to-file), compute bus factor and sensitive-code ownership, and export CSV/JSON for graph databases and visualization. Trigger only when the user explicitly wants a security-oriented ownership or bus-factor analysis grounded in git history (for example: orphaned sensitive code, security maintainers, CODEOWNERS reality checks…
- Security Threat ModelOpenAIOfficialRepository-grounded threat modeling that enumerates trust boundaries, assets, attacker capabilities, abuse paths, and mitigations, and writes a concise Markdown threat model.
