Codex Prompt Library

Codex prompt library for the dspace repo

All detailed Codex prompt guides live in the repository under docs/prompts/codex/. This page stays in the in-game handbook as a quick index so contributors can jump straight to the canonical Markdown files.

Need a prompt fast? Browse the list below, open the linked Markdown file in GitHub, and copy the snippet you need. Each guide follows the same conventions: scope work to one or two files, be explicit about tests to run, stop the prompt when the spec is complete, and scan staged changes with ./scripts/scan-secrets.py before committing.
