4 use cases

  • Plan a project and agree on which model does each part

    Get a plan, a model recommendation for each part, and your approval before any building starts.

    View prompt
    Using the codex-on-crack package in <project folder>, run the crack-plan skill to list my available models and propose a plan that assigns each phase to a model. Expected output: a written plan with one model recommendation per phase and no code changes. Verify that the plan waits for my approval before any build step begins.

  • Have Opus plan and a native worker build, then review

    Split one assignment so Opus plans and reviews while a configured worker implements it.

    View prompt
    Use the codex-on-crack package in <project folder> to have Opus plan <feature name> and a configured native worker implement it, then return the result to Codex for review. Expected output: a plan, the worker's changes, and a review note from the lead. Verify that the review cites the worker results and host-tool evidence.

  • Build with Opus through Claude Code, then check in Codex

    Let Opus implement a whole assignment, then have the Codex host verify it in the browser.

    View prompt
    With the codex-on-crack package in <project folder>, have Opus 5.5 implement <assignment> through Claude Code, then ask the Codex host to open the result in the browser and report any problems. Expected output: the implementation plus a browser check summary. Verify that the browser evidence comes from the Codex host, not from the Claude session.

  • Follow and review agent work in the Codex on Crack panel

    Watch phases, handoffs, and tool activity, then leave feedback without interrupting the agent.

    View prompt
    Connect the workspace at <workspace path> to the Codex on Crack panel and list its registered phases, agents, and handoffs. Expected output: a summary of the run with timing and available token counters, with missing values shown as unknown. Verify that no feedback has been treated as approval.
