ask-codex

Ask Codex

Send a question or task to Codex and return the response.

How to Use

Execute the ask-codex script with the user's arguments:

"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/ask-codex.sh" $ARGUMENTS

Interpreting Output

• The script outputs Codex's response to stdout and status info to stderr
• Read the stdout output carefully and incorporate Codex's response into your answer
• If the script exits with a non-zero code, report the error to the user

Error Handling

Exit Code	Meaning
0	Success - Codex response is in stdout
1	Validation error (missing codex, empty question, invalid flags)
124	Timeout - suggest using --codex-timeout with a larger value
Other	Codex process error - report the exit code and any stderr output

Notes

• The response is saved to .duo/skill/<timestamp>/output.md for reference
• Default model is gpt-5.4:xhigh with a 3600-second timeout
