awesome-codex-subagents
A collection of 130+ specialized Codex subagents covering a wide range of development use cases.
Coldcast Lens
awesome-codex-subagents is a cookbook of 130+ pre-built AI agents for OpenAI's Codex, organized across 10 domains — core development, language specialists, infrastructure, security, AI/ML, data, docs, and more. Each subagent comes with a tuned model profile, sandbox permissions, and focused instructions.
Think of it as a hiring agency for your AI workforce. Instead of writing custom prompts for every task, you grab a specialist — a Rust reviewer, a Terraform auditor, a Python type-checker. The independent context windows prevent cross-contamination between tasks. VoltAgent also maintains awesome-claude-code-subagents (100+ for Claude) and awesome-agent-skills (700+).
Use this when you're on Codex and want domain-specific agents without writing all the prompts yourself. Skip this if you're not on Codex — these are TOML configs for Codex's agent directory.
The catch: Codex doesn't auto-spawn custom subagents — you must delegate explicitly in prompts. And 130+ agents sounds comprehensive until you realize quality varies significantly across entries. Test before trusting.
