Review before shipping

Use /codex:review to get a read-only Codex review of your current uncommitted changes. For a branch review against a base ref, add --base. 
/codex:review

/codex:review --base main
For a review that questions your implementation choices — tradeoffs, failure modes, and alternative approaches — use /codex:adversarial-review instead: 
/codex:adversarial-review --base main challenge whether this was the right caching and retry design
Neither command makes changes to your code. They return Codex’s output verbatim.

​
Hand a problem to Codex

Use /codex:rescue to delegate investigation or a fix request to Codex. Describe what you want Codex to look into. 
/codex:rescue investigate why the build is failing in CI
You can also ask Claude Code to delegate naturally: 
Ask Codex to redesign the database connection to be more resilient.
Claude Code will route the request to the codex:codex-rescue subagent, which forwards it to your local Codex CLI.

​
Start something long-running in the background

When a task is likely to take a while, use --background to let Codex run independently while you continue working. 
/codex:adversarial-review --background
/codex:rescue --background investigate the flaky test
Then check in on the job at any time: 
/codex:status
/codex:result
/codex:status shows all jobs for the current repository with their current state. /codex:result returns the full Codex output once the job completes.

​
Continue a previous Codex task

When you run /codex:rescue after a prior task, the plugin checks whether a resumable thread exists for the current Claude session. If one does, it asks whether to continue it or start fresh. To skip the prompt and always resume the last thread: 
/codex:rescue --resume apply the top fix from the last run
To always start a new thread: 
/codex:rescue --fresh start over with a clean investigation

​
Use a smaller model for quick tasks

Pass --model to select a specific model for one command. Use spark as a shorthand for gpt-5.3-codex-spark. 
/codex:rescue --model spark fix the issue quickly
For more control over reasoning effort, add --effort: 
/codex:rescue --model gpt-5.4-mini --effort medium investigate the flaky integration test
If you omit --model and --effort, Codex uses its own defaults (or whatever you have set in your config.toml).

​
Moving work to Codex directly

After any delegated task or stop-gate run, you can move the session directly into the Codex interface. The Codex session ID appears in the output of /codex:result. 
codex resume <session-id>
This opens the exact Codex run so you can review what it did or continue the work with the full Codex interface.
