Sync skills from the source vibe-workflow (in claude-code-plugins) to this codex-workflow repository, adapting Claude Code features to Codex equivalents.

Phase 1: Setup & Discovery

1.1 Clone Source Repository

git clone https://github.com/doodledood/claude-code-plugins /tmp/claude-code-plugins

If already exists, pull latest:

cd /tmp/claude-code-plugins && git pull

1.2 List Skills and Agents

Source locations:

• Skills: /tmp/claude-code-plugins/claude-plugins/vibe-workflow/skills/

• Agents: /tmp/claude-code-plugins/claude-plugins/vibe-workflow/agents/

Destination location: ./skills/

List directory names and agent files (NOT file contents):

ls /tmp/claude-code-plugins/claude-plugins/vibe-workflow/skills/ ls /tmp/claude-code-plugins/claude-plugins/vibe-workflow/agents/ ls ./skills/

Agent-to-Skill Discovery: Source agents contain full implementations. Dynamically match agents to destination skills by:

• Read each agent file's frontmatter - extract the name field

• Search destination skills for matching purpose:

• Agent code-X-reviewer → look for review-X skill

• Agent X-reviewer → look for review-X skill

• Agent X-fixer → look for corresponding fix skill (e.g., bugfix )

• Agent names may not match exactly - compare descriptions and purpose

• For unmatched agents - check if a new skill should be created

Note: Source skills often have brief delegations like "Use the X agent to...". The actual implementation is in the corresponding agent file. When syncing, compare the agent file (not the brief skill) against the destination skill.

1.3 Categorize Skills

Compare the two lists and categorize:

Category Criteria Example

ADD Exists in source, not in destination New skill from upstream

MODIFY Exists in both locations Existing skill to sync

REMOVE Exists only in destination Orphaned skill (ask user)

Special mappings (treat as MODIFY despite name difference):

• Source implement-inplace → Destination implement

• Source review-claude-md-adherence → Destination review-agents-md-adherence

1.4 Create Todo List

Create structured todos based on categorization:

[ ] Clone/update source repository [ ] List and categorize skills

For each skill to ADD:

[ ] Add {skill-name}: copy from source and adapt

For each skill to MODIFY (TWO todos per skill):

[ ] Read {skill-name}: compare source and destination [ ] Update {skill-name}: apply changes if needed

For skills to REMOVE (after user confirmation):

[ ] Remove {skill-name}: delete from destination

Finalization:

[ ] Update README if skills added/removed [ ] Commit and push changes

Example todo list:

[x] Clone/update source repository [x] List and categorize skills [ ] Read bugfix: compare source and destination [ ] Update bugfix: apply changes if needed [ ] Read plan: compare source and destination [ ] Update plan: apply changes if needed [ ] Add new-skill: copy from source and adapt [ ] Update README if skills added/removed [ ] Commit and push changes

Phase 2: Adaptation Rules

When syncing skills, apply these transformations:

2.1 Tool Mappings

Claude Code Codex Equivalent

TodoWrite

update_plan

Task(subagent)

N/A - inline execution only

Skill("vibe-workflow:skill-name")

$skill-name

AskUserQuestion

Standard user prompts

2.2 File Reference Changes

Claude Code Codex

CLAUDE.md

AGENTS.md

/claude-code-plugins/...

Local paths

2.3 Special Cases

implement: Since Codex has no subagents, implement here should match implement-inplace from source (not the orchestrator implement that uses subagents).

review-claude-md-adherence: Maps to review-agents-md-adherence

• update all references from CLAUDE.md to AGENTS.md .

2.4 Skill Format

Source uses Claude Code skill format. Destination uses Codex format:

name: skill-name description: "Description under 500 chars. Include triggers."

Skill instructions...

Limits:

• name : max 100 characters

• description : max 500 characters

Phase 3: Sync Process

3.1 For Skills to ADD

• Mark "Add {skill-name}" todo as in_progress

• Copy skill directory from source: cp -r /tmp/claude-code-plugins/claude-plugins/vibe-workflow/skills/<skill-name> ./skills/

• Read the copied SKILL.md

• Apply adaptation rules from Phase 2

• Write adapted skill

• Mark todo completed

3.2 For Skills to MODIFY (Two-Step Process)

Step 1: Read and Compare

• Mark "Read {skill-name}" todo as in_progress

• Determine the source of truth:

• Check if source skill is a brief delegation (e.g., "Use the X agent to...")

• If brief delegation → read the corresponding agent file as the source

• If full implementation → read the skill file as source

• Read source (agent or skill based on above)

• Read destination: ./skills/{skill-name}/SKILL.md

• Identify differences:

• Content changes in source that should be synced

• Codex-specific adaptations in destination to preserve

• Already up-to-date sections (no change needed)

• Note findings (what needs updating, what's already correct)

• Mark todo completed

Step 2: Update

• Mark "Update {skill-name}" todo as in_progress

• If no changes needed → mark completed , move on

• If changes needed:

• Apply source changes while preserving Codex adaptations

• Use Edit tool for targeted updates (not full rewrites)

• Ensure the destination skill has the FULL implementation (not a brief delegation)

• Mark todo completed

3.2.1 Agent-to-Skill Sync Pattern

When syncing an agent to a skill:

• Read the source agent file (e.g., agents/code-bugs-reviewer.md )

• Read the destination skill file (e.g., skills/review-bugs/SKILL.md )

• Compare content - the destination should contain:

• Proper Codex frontmatter (name , description , metadata )

• Full implementation from the agent, adapted for Codex

• Apply updates from agent to skill:

• New sections, categories, or guidelines from the agent

• Updated review processes or criteria

• New output formats or examples

• Preserve Codex adaptations:

• AGENTS.md instead of CLAUDE.md

• $skill-name invocation format

• No subagent references

• Codex frontmatter format

3.3 For Skills to REMOVE

• Ask user for confirmation before removing

• If confirmed, delete skill directory

• Note removal for README update

3.4 Preserve Codex-Specific Content

When updating, preserve:

• AGENTS.md references (don't revert to CLAUDE.md )

• update_plan (don't revert to TodoWrite )

• $skill-name invocation format

• Inline execution patterns (don't add subagent references)

• Expanded implementations (destination may have fuller versions than source's brief delegations)

Phase 4: Finalize

4.1 Update README

If skills were added or removed, update README.md :

• Available Skills section

• Repository Structure (if directories changed)

4.2 Commit Changes

For each logical group of changes:

git add <files> git commit -m "Sync <skill-name> from vibe-workflow"

Or batch commit:

git add skills/ git commit -m "Sync skills from vibe-workflow"

4.3 Push

git push -u origin <branch>

Edge Cases

Case Action

Skill exists only in destination Ask user before removing

Skill renamed in source Create new, ask about removing old

Major structural changes Document changes, proceed with sync

Source skill uses subagents Adapt to inline execution (run sequentially)

Source skill is brief delegation Read the corresponding agent file as the source of truth

Source agent updated but dest skill exists Sync agent changes into the destination skill

Conflicting content Prefer source logic, apply Codex adaptations

Verification Checklist

After sync, verify:

• All Skill("vibe-workflow:...") calls converted to $skill-name

• All TodoWrite references converted to update_plan

• All CLAUDE.md references converted to AGENTS.md

• No subagent Task() calls remain

• No AskUserQuestion tool references remain

• Description under 500 chars

• Name under 100 chars
