Both the Codex ultrawork directive and the ultragoal skill now force the agent to actually invoke the real user-facing surface (HTTP via `curl -i`, terminal/TUI via `tmux new-session` + `send-keys` + `capture-pane`, GUI via computer-use / Playwright, CLI stdout, DB diff) instead of treating evidence as a free-form artifact list. A paired CLEANUP step requires teardown of every QA-spawned process, tmux session, browser context, container, bound port, temp file/dir, and QA-only env var, with a one-line cleanup receipt recorded next to the artifact path (ultrawork) or embedded in the `--evidence` string (ultragoal). Missing receipt keeps the criterion in_progress / records BLOCKED. New Stop rule: leftover state from QA means NOT done. Regression tests in `components/ultrawork/hooks/ultrawork-hooks.test.mjs` pin SURFACE-AS-SCENARIO, the concrete `curl -i` / `tmux new-session` / `computer-use / Playwright` invocations, the paired CLEANUP block with cleanup receipt + `tmux kill-session`, and the leftover-state Stop rule so the mandates cannot be silently regressed. README and CHANGELOGs refreshed; stale 5,821-char claim replaced with measured 10,037 chars / 213 lines. All 9 ultrawork hook tests + 7 aggregate tests pass.

# codex-ultrawork
|
|
|
|
Codex plugin that injects a compact orchestration directive (the **ultrawork** prompt) when the user prompt contains `ultrawork` or `ulw` (word-bounded, case-insensitive). It also syncs the bundled `codex-ultrawork-reviewer` agent role into `CODEX_HOME/agents` on `SessionStart`.
|
|
|
|
## What the injected directive enforces
|
|
|
|
| Mandate | Behavior |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Goal + binding success criteria | Call `create_goal` (or open with a `# Goal` block) listing the deliverable + **3+ realistic QA scenarios** (happy path, edge cases, adjacent-surface regression). Each scenario's PASS condition is **observable evidence from the real surface** (`tmux` transcript, `curl` status+body, browser screenshot, Playwright assertion, computer-use action log, CLI stdout, parsed config dump, DB state diff). "Tests pass" alone is not evidence. |
|
|
| Manual-QA-as-scenario + paired cleanup | Execution loop step 4 (**SURFACE-AS-SCENARIO**) forces the agent to *actually invoke* the surface end-to-end with concrete commands keyed by surface (HTTP → `curl -i`, TUI → `tmux new-session` + `send-keys` + `capture-pane`, GUI → computer-use / Playwright, CLI, DB diff). Step 5 (**CLEANUP, PAIRED**) requires teardown of every QA-spawned process / tmux session / browser context / container / port / temp dir, with a one-line receipt appended to the notepad. Leftover state → NOT done. |
|
|
| Durable /tmp notepad | `mktemp -t ulw-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).XXXXXX.md` with sections `Plan`, `Success criteria + QA scenarios`, `Now`, `Todo`, `Findings`, `Learnings`. **Append**, never rewrite. |
|
|
| Obsessive atomic todos | Every action — even one-line edits, `ls`, single test runs — becomes a todo. Format: `path: <action> for <criterion> — verify by <check>`. One in_progress at a time, mark completed immediately. |
|
|
| GPT-5.2 xhigh verification gate | Triggered automatically on user-requested rigor, 3+ files, 20+ turns, 30+ minutes, or refactor/migration/perf/security work. Use the bundled `codex-ultrawork-reviewer` agent role when available. Reviewer verdict is **binding** — no "false positive", no minimising, no arguing. Loop until **unconditional** approval. "Looks good but…" = REJECTION. |
|
|
|
|
The directive is currently 10,037 chars / 213 lines and follows the GPT-5.5 prompting structure (Role / Goal / Bootstrap / Execution loop / Verification gate / Commits / Constraints / Output / Stop rules).
|
|
|
|
## Install (via this marketplace)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
codex plugin marketplace add /path/to/codex-plugins
|
|
node /path/to/codex-plugins/scripts/install-local.mjs /path/to/codex-plugins
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The installer copies the plugin into `~/.codex/plugins/cache/code-yeongyu-codex-plugins/omo/0.1.0`, enables it in `~/.codex/config.toml`, and registers the `UserPromptSubmit` and `SessionStart` hooks.
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
`hooks/hooks.json` registers a `UserPromptSubmit` hook running:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python3 ${PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/ultrawork-detector.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Codex passes the prompt payload on stdin. When the pattern `\b(?:ultrawork|ulw)\b` (case-insensitive) matches, the hook writes the directive to stdout — Codex injects non-JSON stdout as `additional_context` for the next turn. Otherwise the hook writes nothing and exits 0. Malformed input also exits 0 to never block the turn.
|
|
|
|
It also registers a `SessionStart` hook running:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python3 ${PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/sync-agents.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
That hook copies bundled `agents/*.toml` files into `CODEX_HOME/agents`. It writes nothing on success and exits 0 even on malformed input.
|
|
|
|
## Smoke test
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
PAYLOAD='{"cwd":"/tmp","hook_event_name":"UserPromptSubmit","model":"gpt-5.5","permission_mode":"default","session_id":"x","transcript_path":"","turn_id":"y","prompt":"please ultrawork"}'
|
|
echo "$PAYLOAD" | python3 hooks/ultrawork-detector.py | head -3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Expect `<ultrawork-mode>` ... directive body.
|
|
|
|
## Agent role smoke test
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
CODEX_HOME="$(mktemp -d)"
|
|
echo '{"hook_event_name":"SessionStart"}' | CODEX_HOME="$CODEX_HOME" python3 hooks/sync-agents.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Expect `CODEX_HOME/agents/codex-ultrawork-reviewer.toml` to exist.
