Swarm
SkillDev toolsCodex adapter for enabling a higher-rigor swarm-like workflow in the current Codex thread. Use when the user asks for swarm mode, maximum quality, parallel investigation, extra review rigor, or a swarm-style approach without necessarily invoking the OpenCode Swarm plugin.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.
Then ask your AI: use the Swarm skill
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by zaxbyhub/opencode-swarm in .agents/skills/swarm/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Read .opencode/skills/swarm/SKILL.md for the source behavior model, then adapt it to Codex.
Codex-specific execution notes:
- Treat this as a workflow posture, not an instruction to call OpenCode
/swarmcommands. - Use parallel local reads/searches where safe.
- Use
update_planfor visible task tracking on substantial work. - Add independent review pressure through
$qa-sweep,$swarm-pr-review, or self-critic checks when subagents are unavailable. - Keep the user looped in with short progress updates during longer work.
- For any task that edits code, tests, docs, package metadata, release notes, or skill files, final completion requires:
- objective validation evidence,
- independent implementation reviewer approval on the actual latest diff,
- separate critic approval after reviewer approval,
- no unresolved
NEEDS_REVISION/BLOCKEDitems, and - no edits after those approvals.
- Record reviewer and critic verdicts in durable task artifacts. For issue-tracer
work, use
08b-implementation-review.mdand09-final-critic.md; otherwise use task-local review artifacts unless the repo forbids artifacts. - Explorer subagents, a plan critic, passing tests, or self-review do not satisfy the final implementation-review gate when subagent delegation is available and swarm work is authorized.
For implementation tasks, prefer $swarm-implement; for fresh PR review, prefer
$swarm-pr-review; for known PR feedback closure, prefer
$swarm-pr-feedback; for bug tracing, prefer $issue-tracer.
