Actually ran the shipped send-to-codex.mjs script end to end against a real workspace: it wrote a real handoff file to .agent-bridge/inbox/, created a runId-scoped run directory, and - since Codex CLI wasn't installed here - correctly produced a bridge_error.json with a precise three-option fix instead of ever claiming the audit happened. The catch: the scripts hard-depend on agent-bridge/bridge.mjs, a runtime that lives outside the skill folder entirely, so a literal cp -r of just the skill directory is broken until that sibling runtime is installed separately.

What Claude Codex Bridge does

Packages a completed Claude (or Codex) execution into a structured handoff, calls the other CLI in read-only audit mode via a local Node bridge, and returns findings plus a suggested reply in the same conversation, writing every run's transfer file and success/error status under .agent-bridge/ for later inspection. Triggers when a user wants Codex/GPT-5.5 to audit Claude's latest work, wants Claude to audit a Codex handoff, or wants an automated Claude-Codex review loop.

How to install Claude Codex Bridge

git clone https://github.com/Jayden-X-L/claude-codex-bridge.git
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r claude-codex-bridge/.claude/skills/claude-codex-bridge ~/.claude/skills/claude-codex-bridge
# ALSO required for the scripts to find anything: cp -r claude-codex-bridge/agent-bridge ~/.agent-bridge (or run `node agent-bridge/bridge.mjs install` from the clone)

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.

Commands — how to trigger Claude Codex Bridge

  • /claude-codex-bridge Real, working Claude<->Codex audit-handoff pipeline with durable run tracking, but the skill scripts are dead on arrival without a separately-installed bridge runtime

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

  • Have Codex audit the changes I just made before I open a PR.
  • Send my latest work to GPT-5.5 for a read-only second-opinion review.
  • Set up an automated review loop between Claude and Codex on this repo.
