1> **Host: Codex CLI** — This skill was designed for Claude Code and adapted for Codex.
2> Cross-reference commands use installed skill names in Codex rather than `/octo:*` slash commands.
3> Use the active Codex shell and subagent tools. Do not claim a provider, model, or host subagent is available until the current session exposes it.
4> For host tool equivalents, see `skills/blocks/codex-host-adapter.md`.

9## MANDATORY COMPLIANCE — DO NOT SKIP

11**When this skill is invoked, you MUST dispatch work to multiple providers in parallel. You are PROHIBITED from:**
12- Running tasks sequentially with a single model instead of parallel multi-provider dispatch
13- Skipping orchestrate.sh and doing the work directly
14- Deciding the task is "simple enough" for a single provider
15- Substituting serial Claude-only execution for multi-LLM parallel execution
16
17**This skill exists specifically for multi-provider parallel work. If you catch yourself thinking "I'll just do this myself" — STOP.**
