How to use Codex Workflow Guide

Fill in your project details (project, goal, stack, constraints) — every prompt uses them automatically
Read the Workflow tab to learn the planning-vs-execution split: ChatGPT web plans, Codex executes one small task at a time
Pick a prompt pack (Planning, Spec writing, Review, or Handoff), search if needed, and copy a prompt
Paste the prompt into ChatGPT web for planning/spec/review, or hand a single task to Codex
Work through the Safety Checklist tab (read-only first, own OAuth, path containment, never expose secrets, never run untrusted commands)
Download the full guide as a .md file for reuse

Planning-vs-execution split explained (ChatGPT web = planning brain, Codex = execution engine) with a 6-step workflow (Plan x3, Execute x2, Review x1)
4 prompt packs x 3 prompts = 12 copyable prompts with fill-in fields (project, goal, stack, constraints) auto-filled into every prompt
Prompt search, seeded deterministic shuffle of all 12 prompts
7-item safety checklist carrying the audit guards as guidance (read-only first, own OAuth, path containment, never expose secrets, never run untrusted commands, review before accepting, keep a way back) with progress bar
