as written by the author

You can start and use Codex TUI to verify changes.

Important notes:

Start interactively.

Always set RUST_LOG="trace" when starting the process.

Pass -c log_dir=<some_temp_dir> argument to have logs written to a specific directory to help with debugging.

When sending a test message programmatically, send text first, then send Enter in a separate write (do not send text + Enter in one burst).

Use just codex target to run - just codex -c ...

Copy the folder

Take openai/test-tui from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
