What it does
Architecture Governance is an agent skill from BytePioneer-AI/codex-host. Apply codexhost package and native ownership rules when changing production code or dependency directions. Inspect public contracts and run the existing boundary check; skip documentation-only work.
Its SKILL.md is about 710 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/ai-guidance.md` and `references/module-contract.md`).
The repository describes itself as: Run Pi and Claude Code directly in Codex Desktop. 在 Codex Desktop 中直接运行 Pi 和 Claude Code。 The licence is LGPL-3.0.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 08c7d65. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
node
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Architecture Governance loads about 710 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 309 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Use the current repository's AGENTS.md and executable boundary checker as the policy. Paths in commands are relative to the repository root.
Before changing code
- Inspect the working tree and identify the owning package or crate. Preserve unrelated edits. Read the relevant package exports, contracts, implementation, tests, and feature documentation; use docs/index.md to locate it.
- For dependency changes, read
tools/check-boundaries.mjsand runnode tools/check-boundaries.mjsbefore editing to establish the current result. This checker scans the repository; it has no--changedmode or suppressible baseline. - For changes to state, asynchronous behavior, or cross-package contracts, identify the authoritative owner, command path, derived views, event order, failure semantics, and native capability limits. Use implementation questions when needed.
- Record substantial behavior or architecture decisions in the relevant existing feature document. Follow AGENTS.md for documentation scope; small fixes do not require a new spec or module scaffold.
Implement within existing ownership
Use package public exports for cross-package dependencies. Preserve the Rust, Renderer, Shared Contracts, Host, and Harness Adapter responsibilities from AGENTS.md. Put Harness-specific protocols in the corresponding Adapter and load installed Harnesses through the plugin contract.
Use public contract guidance when an interface must change. New modules should solve a present responsibility; do not introduce ZCode's module manifests, layer names, or policy files into this repository merely to follow its original workflow.
Verify
Run node tools/check-boundaries.mjs after production changes that affect boundaries. Select other validation from the actual package scripts and owning test configuration, proportional to the change. Run focused behavior tests for changed semantics; a boundary check alone does not prove runtime correctness.
Report new failures separately from pre-existing failures, and state what was actually executed. A skipped or unavailable check remains unverified. Use the current script output as evidence; do not claim detection of cycles, line-count thresholds, or state ownership unless an executed check actually covers them.

Can I use Architecture Governance in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add BytePioneer-AI/codex-host --skill architecture-governance -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/architecture-governance, .gemini/skills/architecture-governance, .github/skills/architecture-governance and .opencode/skills/architecture-governance in your project.
What does Architecture Governance need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Architecture Governance needs the command-line tools its instructions call (node).
Does Architecture Governance access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Architecture Governance safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
What licence does Architecture Governance use?
Architecture Governance is published under the LGPL-3.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Architecture Governance use?
About 710 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 563 tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
