Summary

  • update Codex integration docs from static-only language to MCP-capable + no lifecycle hooks
  • add dedicated Codex guide: docs/integrations/codex.md
  • add Codex orchestration templates:
    • docs/integrations/templates/codex-agents.md.template
    • docs/integrations/templates/floop.SKILL.md.template
  • align core docs with the new model:
    • docs/integrations/README.md
    • docs/integrations/agent-prompt-template.md
    • AGENTS.md
  • add Codex quick-install UX (copy/paste setup, restart, verify, update, uninstall)

Why

Codex can call MCP tools, but lacks Claude-style hook events. This change documents and templates the pseudo-hook cadence (floop_active at task/context boundaries, floop_learn on correction, floop_feedback after behavior outcomes) so teams can run floop reliably in Codex.

Validation

  • verified in a live Codex session that MCP can read global-store frond behaviors via floop_list(tag="frond")
  • docs/template consistency pass completed
  • docs/templates-only PR (no runtime code changes)

Greptile Summary

This PR updates Codex integration documentation to reflect MCP support with instruction-based orchestration. The changes establish a dual-layer approach for Codex: MCP tools for bidirectional floop access, and explicit runtime cadence rules to compensate for the absence of lifecycle hooks.

Key additions:

  • New comprehensive codex.md guide with MCP setup, verification steps, and dogfooding workflow
  • Codex-specific AGENTS template defining pseudo-hook cadence for task start, context changes, corrections, and feedback
  • Codex skill template (floop.SKILL.md.template) for stronger workflow enforcement
  • Updated compatibility matrix showing Codex as MCP-capable
  • CLI fallback documentation throughout for hookless environments

All changes are documentation and templates only, with no code modifications. References to floop MCP tools (floop_active, floop_learn, floop_feedback, floop_validate, etc.) are accurate and match the existing schema.

Confidence Score: 5/5

  • This PR is safe to merge with no risk
  • Documentation-only changes with no code modifications. All technical references (MCP tools, file paths, configuration formats) are accurate and consistent. The documentation is well-structured, comprehensive, and follows existing patterns in the repository.
  • No files require special attention
