# Codex Team The lead orchestrates, Codex agents execute. Each agent gets one focused task. The team lead prevents file conflicts before spawning — the orchestrator IS the lock manager. For verified Codex CLI commands and flags, see `../shared/references/codex-cli-verified-commands.md` when this skill falls back to `$swarm`. ## When to Use - You have 2+ tasks (bug fixes, implementations, refactors) - Tasks are well-scoped with clear instructions - You want Codex execution with predictable isolation - You may be in Claude or Codex runtime (skill auto-selects backend) **Don't use when:** Tasks need tight shared-state coordination. Use `$swarm` for dependency-heavy wave orchestration. ## Backend Selection (MANDATORY) Select backend in this order: 1. `spawn_agent` available -> **Codex sub-agents** (preferred; enabled by default in current Codex) 2. Codex CLI available -> **Codex CLI via background shell commands** (`codex exec ...`) 3. None of the above -> fall back to `$swarm` ## Pre-Flight (CLI backend only) ``` # REQUIRED before spawning with Codex CLI backend if ! command -v codex > /dev/null 2>&1; then echo "Codex CLI not found. Install: npm i -g @openai/codex" # Fallback: use $swarm fi # Model availability test (uses the user's configured Codex default) if ! codex exec --full-auto -C "$(pwd)" "echo ok" > /dev/null 2>&1; then echo "Default Codex model unavailable. Falling back to $swarm." fi ``` ## Canonical Command ```bash codex exec --full-auto -C "$(pwd
