What variant of Codex are you using?

App

What feature would you like to see?

It would be great to integrate GitHub issues as first-class citizens in Codex, so you can go from issue to completion without breaking flow:

  • Start a Codex thread directly from a GitHub issue
  • Enable fast, continuous workflow from issue discovery to implementation and completion
  • Reduce context switching between tools

You can write a skill to do part of this. Just use the $skill-creator skill and ask Codex to create it for you.

I use this workflow frequently in the Codex app. My skill is named $codex-bug, and I invoke it with the path to the bug report along with optional instructions (like "fix this" or "investigate this" or "tell me whether this is a regression").
