Codex Autoresearch

Skill by ara.so — Daily 2026 Skills collection.

Codex Autoresearch is a Codex skill that runs an autonomous modify→verify→keep/revert loop on your codebase. You describe a measurable goal in one sentence; Codex confirms the plan, then iterates unattended — every improvement stacks in git, every failure reverts automatically — until interrupted or a cap is reached. Inspired by Karpathy's autoresearch concept, generalized beyond ML training to any software metric.
