jif d46a98d31a Bridge host-loaded skills into the skills extension (#26172)
## Why

The skills extension needs to become the path that exposes local host
skills without losing the behavior already owned by core skill loading.
Host skill discovery is not just `$CODEX_HOME/skills`: it also includes
config layers, bundled-skill settings, plugin roots, runtime extra
roots, and the filesystem for the selected primary environment.

Rather than making the extension reload host skills and risk drifting
from that authoritative load, this PR bridges the already-loaded
per-turn skills outcome into the extension. That lets the extension
advertise host skills and inject explicit `$skill` prompts while
preserving the same roots, disabled/hidden state, rendered paths, and
environment-backed file reads that the legacy path uses.

## What Changed

- Adds `HostLoadedSkills` in `core-skills` to wrap the turn's
`SkillLoadOutcome` and read `SKILL.md` through the filesystem that
loaded that skill.
- Stores `HostLoadedSkills` in turn extension data for normal turns and
review turns, so the skills extension can consume the loaded host
catalog without reloading it.
- Adds `HostSkillProvider` under `ext/skills/src/provider/host.rs`,
mapping host-loaded skill metadata into the skills-extension
catalog/read contract.
- Registers the host provider by default from
`codex_skills_extension::install()`.
- Preserves host skill metadata such as dependencies, disabled state,
hidden-from-prompt policy, and slash-normalized display paths.
- Passes host-loaded skills through `SkillListQuery` and
`SkillReadRequest` so explicit skill invocation reads only resources
from the loaded host catalog.
- Adds integration coverage for a real legacy
`$CODEX_HOME/skills/.../SKILL.md` skill being listed and injected
through the installed extension.

## Testing

- Added `installed_extension_loads_host_skills_from_legacy_roots` in
`ext/skills/tests/skills_extension.rs`.
- `just test -p codex-skills-extension`

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Run the following on Mac or Linux to install Codex CLI:

curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh

Run the following on Windows to install Codex CLI:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex"

Codex CLI can also be installed via the following package managers:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.
