š” Feature Proposal: Bulk Codex Workflow Injector (Rust CLI)
Problem
Onboarding Codex across many repos is tedious ā you have to manually add .github/workflows/codex.yml to each one. There's no official tool to automate this at scale.
Proposed addition
A small Rust CLI utility that scans every repo under a GitHub user or org and injects the Codex workflow into any that don't already have it.
Key behaviors:
- Paginates the GitHub API to cover all repos
- Skips archived repos automatically
- Idempotent ā won't overwrite an existing workflow
--dry-runflag to preview changes before committing
Usage:
export GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_your_token
cargo run -- your-username-or-org
cargo run -- your-username-or-org --dry-run
Why it matters
For teams or power users with many repos, this removes the biggest friction point to adopting Codex everywhere. The implementation is already working and battle-tested.
I'm happy to share the full implementation for review, or to iterate on the design in this issue if the team has a preferred approach. I understand contributions are by invitation only and will wait for direction before opening any PR.

Bulk injection makes a lot of sense, especially once adoption moves from "I'm experimenting" to "we want this across many repos."
What we've been noticing is that rollout is usually the easy part - the harder problem
