Codex and Agents

#A shared destination

Both --tool codex and --tool agents write skills to ~/.agents/skills/<skill.name>/. Both values are equivalent for the destination. --tool all includes this directory and ~/.claude/skills/<skill.name>/.

#Apply the Maleta

1. Validate

   bash

   maleta validate --file ./maleta.json

2. Simulate for Codex

   bash

   maleta install --file ./maleta.json --tool codex --dry-run

3. Install for Codex

   bash

   maleta install --file ./maleta.json --tool codex

4. Or install for Agents

   bash

   maleta install --file ./maleta.json --tool agents

The --tool override applies only to that run and never rewrites targetTool in the JSON. Built-in and GitHub skills follow the same pipeline; selecting the destination changes only where they are materialized.

#Plugins do not apply

#Check in Codex

After installation, restart Codex and use /skills to check the available skills. If the base directory is elsewhere, the MALETA_CLI_HOME variable changes the home directory used by the CLI.
