Runs entirely through the local `codex` CLI you're already logged into. **Heads up — this skill requires a ChatGPT Plus or Pro subscription *plus* the Codex CLI installed locally.** If you have neither, you can use GPT Image 2 in the browser via RunComfy instead — hosted, no ChatGPT subscription or local install needed (RunComfy account required): - **Text-to-image:** [runcomfy.com/models/openai/gpt-image-2/text-to-image](https://www.runcomfy.com/models/openai/gpt-image-2/text-to-image) - **Image edit (i2i):** [runcomfy.com/models/openai/gpt-image-2/edit](https://www.runcomfy.com/models/openai/gpt-image-2/edit) The rest of this document covers the local Codex CLI flow for agents whose user has a ChatGPT subscription. *Example output: a plain flat-color icon repainted via `--ref` in ukiyo-e style — composition preserved, rendering swapped, period-appropriate red seal added by the model unprompted.* ## When to trigger Trigger when the user explicitly asks for GPT Image 2 via their ChatGPT subscription, for example: - "use GPT Image 2" / "use gpt-image-2" / "use ChatGPT Images 2.0" - "use Image 2" / "image 2 this" - attached a reference image and asked to remix / edit / restyle it Do **not** auto-trigger for a plain "generate an image" request if the user didn't specify this route. If they did specify it, do not silently fall back to HTML mockups, screenshots, or a different image model. ## How to invoke A single bash script handles everything: runs `codex exec` with the right flags, then decodes the generated image from the persisted session rollout. **Text-to-image:** ``` bash scripts/gen.sh \ --prompt "" \ --out ``` **Image-to-image** (reference flag is repeatable for multi-reference composition): ``` bash scripts/gen.sh \ --prompt "" \ --ref /absolute/path/to/reference.png \ --out ``` Optional: `--timeout-sec 300` (default 300). ## Default behavior - **Pass the user's prompt through raw.** Do not translate, polish, or add style modifiers unless the user asked for it. - **Choose the output path.** Default to `./image-.png` in the current working directory if the user didn't specify. - **Deliver the image.** After the script succeeds, display / attach the output file. Do not stop at "done, see path X". - **Text-heavy layouts are fine.** Image 2 handles infographics and timeline prompts well. Do not preemptively warn just because a prompt has a lot of text. ## Hard constraints - Do not switch routes without permission. If the user said "use GPT Image 2", do not substitute DALL·E, Midjourney, an HTML mockup, or a manual screenshot workflow. - Do not rewrite the prompt unless asked. - Do not imply this skill works without a local `codex` login and a valid ChatGPT subscription with image-generation entitlement. ## Prerequisites - `codex` CLI installed — `brew install codex` or see [openai/codex](https://github.com/openai/codex). - Logged in with a ChatGPT plan that includes Image 2 — `codex login`. - `python3` on PATH (ships with macOS; `apt install python3` on Linux). This skill does **not** grant image-generation capability on its own. It exposes the capability the user already has through their ChatGPT subscription. ## Exit codes code meaning 0 success — output path printed on stdout 2 bad args 3 `codex` or `python3` CLI missing 4 `--ref` file does not exist 5 `codex exec` failed (auth? network? model?) 6 no new session file detected 7 imagegen did not produce an image payload (feature not enabled, quota, or capability refused) On failure, name the layer in one sentence instead of dumping the full stderr at the user. ## How it works The `codex` CLI reuses the logged-in ChatGPT session and exposes an `imagegen` tool (gated behind the `image_generation` feature flag). The script: - snapshots `~/.codex/sessions/` before the run - runs `codex exec --enable image_generation --sandbox read-only ...` (with `-i ` for each reference image) - diffs the sessions directory, then invokes `scripts/extract_image.py` to scan every new rollout JSONL for a base64 image payload (PNG / JPEG / WebP magic-header match) - decodes the largest matching blob and writes it to `--out` Two non-obvious flags other wrappers get wrong on codex-cli 0.111.0+: - `--enable image_generation` is **required**; the feature is still under-development and off by default. - `--ephemeral` **must not** be used — ephemeral sessions aren't persisted, so the image payload has nowhere to live. ## Data handling The script is narrowly scoped on purpose: - It reads **only** session rollout files created by its own `codex exec` invocation. The sessions directory is snapshotted before the call and diffed after, so any prior `~/.codex/sessions/*` files (which may contain unrelated Codex conversations) are never touched, read, or transmitted. - It writes only two kinds of file: the output PNG at the caller's `--out` path, and short-lived `mktemp` logs that are auto-deleted on exit via a trap. - No environment variables are read. No credentials are requested. No other paths under `~/.codex/` are accessed. - No network calls leave this skill. The only outbound traffic is the one made by the `codex` CLI itself (to OpenAI, using the user's existing ChatGPT login) — this skill does not add endpoints, telemetry, or callbacks. ## What this skill is not Not a direct OpenAI API client. Not a capability grant — it depends on the user's working Codex CLI login. Not a multi-tenant service (one call per invocation; concurrent calls are serialized by the filesystem-snapshot diff).
