What it does

Devcodex Workspace is an agent skill from devcodex-labs/devcodex. Use when cwd belongs to a DevCodex workspace, the user asks for DevCodex behavior, OR the user message may match a workspace custom skill under .devcodex/workspace/skills (short triggers like skill name/id, quoted phrases in skill description, e.g. test/测试). Prefer workspace skill fixed behavior over connectivity/chat defaults.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Intent-driven AI coding workflow runtime for consistent context, skills, approvals, validation, and handoffs across six AI coding hosts. The licence is AGPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Cwd belongs to a DevCodex workspace
  • The user asks for DevCodex behavior
  • The user message may match a workspace custom skill under .devcodex/workspace/skills (short triggers like skill name/id
  • Quoted phrases in skill description

Example prompts

  • “/devcodex-workspace”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Before treating a short user message as connectivity ping / Ready, use the bounded catalog supplied by the unified route; do not…
  2. If a route is committed, load only that one SKILL.md through skill_route and obey it for the turn. Do not invent Ready/闲聊.
  3. Privacy / process UI: 禁止列出或扫描用户主目录下的宿主 skill 树，例如
  4. 过程文案用「正在加载 技能」，不要写「命中…正在读取并按该技能执行」。
  5. CLI inventory verify: devcodex skill resolve ; route regression: npm run test:skill-route.
  6. Do not claim UPS inject on Grok. Recover stale route metadata, preserve pending work and continue available actions.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1dd4525. 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:

    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Devcodex Workspace loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 694 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~87
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

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.

description
Use when cwd belongs to a DevCodex workspace, the user asks for DevCodex behavior, OR the user message may match a workspace custom skill under .devcodex/workspace/skills (short triggers like skill name/id, quoted phrases in skill description, e.g. test/测试). Prefer workspace skill fixed behavior over connectivity/chat defaults.

DevCodex Workspace Resolver

Grok UserPromptSubmit cannot inject model context (stdout ignored). Workspace custom skills are not native-scanned; DevCodex uses the same staged skill_route contract as the other hosts: build a bounded W + managed G catalog, commit at most one route, and load only the committed stage body. Stop reports workflow and wording gaps as advisory; it does not force repeated model turns. The plugin is user-global and does not own a workspace. Resolve the nearest workspace-namespace marker from cwd, keep task state under that workspace's .devcodex, and load shared instructions/Skills from user-global DevCodex surfaces plus the committed workspace skill. Full-evidence route: devcodex grok.

Unified Workspace Skill Route（用户可见闭环）

  1. Before treating a short user message as connectivity ping / Ready, use the bounded catalog supplied by the unified route; do not independently scan skill trees.
  2. If a route is committed, load only that one SKILL.md through skill_route and obey it for the turn. Do not invent Ready/闲聊.
  3. Privacy / process UI: 禁止列出或扫描用户主目录下的宿主 skill 树，例如
    C:\Users\…\.grok\skills、~\.grok\bundled\skills、~\.claude\skills、~\.agents\skills（L1）。
    这些 List 会把 C 盘用户路径暴露在过程时间线里。全局 skill 只读
    ~/.agents/devcodex/skills/<id>/SKILL.md 单文件；工作区 skill 只读
    .devcodex/workspace/skills/<id>/SKILL.md。
  4. 过程文案用「正在加载 <id> 技能」，不要写「命中…正在读取并按该技能执行」。
  5. CLI inventory verify: devcodex skill resolve <id>; route regression: npm run test:skill-route.
  6. Do not claim UPS inject on Grok. Recover stale route metadata, preserve pending work and continue available actions.

HostParity (vs Codex) — honesty contract

TierRouteGuaranteesMust not claim
Fulldevcodex grok (official --rules kernel bind)Controlling AGENTS.md in context; host-owned tool permissions; path-observable context and unified staged skill route; workflow/Stop diagnosticsUserPromptSubmit context inject; forced continuation from wording gaps; verified PC0 from Hook payload alone
Partialplain grok in a child Git projectBest-effort Skill discovery + advisory plugin bridge when reachableFull host parity with Codex; kernelInjected=true from passive Hook stdout

Platform facts (Grok Build hooks docs): PreToolUse and Stop/SubagentStop can hard-control; UserPromptSubmit is passive (no inject). PC5 must report Partial unless Full launcher evidence is present. Do not equate Grok with Codex UPS inject bootstrap.

  1. Preserve the semantic intent seed before reading project context.
  2. Bind the nearest valid workspace-namespace root from cwd. Do not require or create workspace AGENTS.md, .agents, .grok, .codex, .claude, .gemini, or .github.
  3. Resolve the project namespace relative to that workspace and bind runtime state under .devcodex/<project>/.
  4. Follow the kernel's intent-first route and read only selected files from the managed global runtime plus the resulting workspace Profile/context plan, and the single workspace skill committed by skill_route.
  5. Use ~/.agents/devcodex/instructions.full.md only for an explicit fallback; workspace .devcodex remains the sole workspace-owned DevCodex surface.
  6. Before substantive output, satisfy UserVisibleReplyLayoutV1 + UserVisibleNoisePolicyV1 (six-host shared): emit plain-language PC0~PC10; show completion checks only when claiming completion. Runtime cannot inject on Grok; models still own S07.
  7. Optional assist: call MCP profile_compose_entry_check for PC0~PC10; missing template/receipt details are repaired while continuing the original task.
  8. Run devcodex doctor / devcodex status and read hostParity (HostParityScorecardV1): full-capable means hard path is ready; still use devcodex grok for Full session kernel evidence. partial lists failedChecks and executable repairSteps (commands); re-run doctor after each fix.
  9. Execute GrokTurnChecklist every non-trivial turn (PF-165 + C16/PI-20260724-01): PC0~PC10 → Intent→Skill mandatory bundle → ContextReadPlan → scan-hygiene → TTFV first delivery → work/gates → report+memory → honest platform ceiling. Never skip S05/S07/C17 because inject is missing.
  10. Workspace skill trigger: if user message matches a W skill, obey that skill before checklist bulk for chat-like turns.

The plugin is a discovery adapter, not a second rules source. Its passive Hook output must never be presented as kernel-injection evidence. Do not copy AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, .agents, .github, .grok, .codex, .claude, or .gemini into a workspace.
