Codex Project Flight Control — Agents-Token

Keep long Codex projects from getting lost Long Codex tasks can get confusing. The goal changes, work spreads across many files, and it becomes hard to tell what is actually finished. Project Flight Control gives complex work a simple three-role routine. Goalkeeper keeps the goal, limits, completion rules, and current progress clear. Builder works on one agreed task, makes the required changes, runs the relevant checks, and records what happened. Verifier checks the saved result separately and reports missing work, errors, and risks before anything is accepted. The person doing the work does not get to approve their own result. What it helps you do - Turn a large request into one clear goal and manageable milestones. - Keep the work aligned with the original goal. - See what changed, what was tested, and what was not tested. - Continue a project after a break or in a new conversation. - Check an existing implementation without changing it. - Send back only the failed part instead of repeating the whole task. - End each stage with a clear status, blocker, risk, and next action. Four ways to use it START Begin a new complex task. Project Flight Control first checks the current project and helps define the goal, limits, and completion rules. RESUME Continue from the current Git history and saved project records instead of relying on conversation memory. AUDIT Check whether an existing result matches the agreed goal and whether the available tests and evidence can be trusted. STATUS_ONLY View progress, completed work, blockers, risks, and the next step without changing project files. Designed to reduce wasted work Builder starts with the files and tests that matter most. It expands its reading only when the current evidence is not enough. It is instructed to reuse existing project code before creating something new, avoid unrelated changes, run the smallest useful checks first, and rework only the areas affected by a failed review. These rules are designed to reduce repeated reading and unnecessary rework. They do not guarantee a fixed reduction in tokens, cost, or development time. What you receive A typical run ends with a Project Control Report showing: - The current goal and milestone - Work that was completed - Files that changed - Checks that passed or failed - Checks that were not run - Open blockers and remaining risks - The saved project version that was reviewed - The next approved action Best for - Independent developers - One-person companies - Product designers working with Codex - AI builders - Open-source maintainers - People building websites, tools, automations, or digital products - Projects that take several stages or conversations to finish Not needed for Project Flight Control is usually unnecessary for a simple question, a one-line text change, or a very small edit. Before you use it This is an early-access Windows release. It requires Windows 10 or 11, Windows PowerShell 5.1, Git for Windows, and a Codex environment that supports Skills and separate agent profiles. It uses local Git commits and separate work areas to preserve and check project progress. It does not automatically push code, merge branches, publish releases, deploy products, change production systems, or modify external accounts. Strict read isolation has not been reliably verified on Windows. Do not use this workflow as a security boundary for passwords, API keys, customer information, private documents, or confidential source code. AI review does not replace your own judgment. Always review account, payment, privacy, permission, and production changes yourself. Project Flight Control is an independent project and is not an official OpenAI product.
