What variant of Codex are you using?
cli
What feature would you like to see?
Allow requests from user in cli to begin with a /[skill-name].
Right now they are rejected for not being commands.
I realize you gotta go your own way, and I was very skeptical of this move by CC team but it turns out it works.
For example, I have an /execute skill I use against a ticket id like /execute ct-231
And it does all this stuff. It isn't a command though, and doesn't need to be.
This is rejected on codex cli, so i have to write do /execute blah

Use a dollar sign rather than a slash. That is,
$skill-namerather than/skill-name.
