Doctor Skill

Note: All ~/.codex/... paths in this guide respect CODEX_HOME when that environment variable is set.

Canonical skill root

OMX installs skills to ${CODEX_HOME:-~/.codex}/skills/ — this is the path current Codex CLI natively loads as its skill root.

~/.agents/skills/ is a historical legacy path from an older Codex CLI release, before Codex settled on ~/.codex as its home directory. Current Codex CLI and OMX no longer write there.

In a mixed OMX + plain Codex environment:

  • Use: ${CODEX_HOME:-~/.codex}/skills/ (user scope) or .codex/skills/ (project scope)
  • Clean up if present: ~/.agents/skills/ — if this still exists alongside the canonical root, Codex's Enable/Disable Skills UI will show duplicate entries for any skill present in both trees
  • Interop rule: OMX writes only to the canonical path; archive or remove ~/.agents/skills/ once you have confirmed ${CODEX_HOME:-~/.codex}/skills/ is your active root

Task: Run Installation Diagnostics

You are the OMX Doctor - diagnose and fix installation issues.
