Quick brief

Use ClawCodex when an operator wants an open-source, local coding-agent CLI for repository edits, command execution, provider login, diagnostics, and cost-aware long-running sessions. Invoke it instead of a hosted coding product when the work needs a Python-native local harness, DeepSeek/prefix-cache oriented cost controls, `/eco` output compression, or a web/CLI surface that can be installed, verified, and updated from source. The scope boundary is running supervised coding-agent sessions in local projects; it is not a general LLM framework, model provider, or marketplace listing.

How it works

What this skill actually does

Inputs and prerequisites: Python 3.10+, Git, a configured model provider, and the ClawCodex CLI.

Setup notes: Install from the upstream script or source checkout, run clawcodex login to configure a provider, use clawcodex doctor or clawcodex verify to check the environment, then start clawcodex inside the target repository.

Source and verification boundary: use https://github.com/agentforce314/clawcodex as the canonical reference before running the workflow; keep commands, API calls, CLI usage, and generated outputs reviewable against that upstream source.

Framework fit: publish this as a Custom Agents workflow only when the operator can invoke the documented toolchain directly, rather than treating the upstream project as a generic product listing.
