If you're using Codex, you might not know about this repo `openai/skills` if codex is open right now just ask codex `take a look at skills installer, what are some skills I should install` and it'll know how to scan this repo for skills and install the ones you need

@jxnlco Oh are these not in the skills page in the codex app already?

I assumed anything open source would be in there, never thought to check the official repo
