Master behavior rules for Codex. Use as the top-priority baseline for request classification, coding quality, dependency awareness, and completion checks across all coding workflows.
Passed 6 of 11 test cases with the skill, and 6 of 11 without it.

Tokens, turns and time describe resource use, not a dollar price.
One of 2 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
I need to add a feature to our 60-file repository. What is your first step before editing code?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Checks for `.codex/context/genome.md` before initiating code edits. | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
P0 rules: classify request type -> apply engineering rules -> check dependencies before edit -> run quality gate before completion -> reply in user's language. Scripts: run --help first, treat as black-box.
Priority: P0. These rules override lower-priority skill instructions.
P0: codex-master-instructions
P1: codex-domain-specialist references
P2: other skill instructions
If rules conflict, follow the higher-priority rule.
