Codex + td Workflow
Session bootstrap (mandatory)
- At conversation start (or after
/clear), run td usage --new-session once.
- For later reminders in the same conversation, run
td usage -q.
- Do not start a second td session mid-task.
Pick and track work
- Check active context with
td current.
- If no focused issue is active, pick one with
td next and begin with td start <id>.
- Log meaningful progress using
td log "<message>".
Required completion flow
- Before stopping work, capture current state with
td handoff <id>.
- Submit finished work with
td review <id>.
- Do not use
td close for completed work.
- Approvals are done by a different session via
td approve <id>.
Multi-issue work
- Use workspace mode when handling related issues:
td ws start "<name>"td ws tag <id1> <id2> ...td ws log "<message>"td ws handoff
Guardrails
- Keep td issue IDs in notes, logs, and handoffs.
- Prefer small, frequent
td log updates over one large final update.
- If td state and local git state disagree, report both explicitly.
