keep-codex-fast
A backup-first Codex skill for keeping local Codex state fast, clean, and recoverable.
The Lens
keep-codex-fast is a maintenance script for OpenAI's Codex CLI. It walks through accumulated chat history, terminal logs, and worktrees, then archives or prunes them safely. MIT.
The flow is conservative on purpose. Inspect first, write a handoff doc, back up state, then optionally apply changes. Read-only by default, archive instead of delete, and you opt in with --apply when you actually want it to do something.
Solo: useful if your Codex sessions feel sluggish from months of chat history, terminal logs, and stale worktrees piling up. Teams: skip, this is personal-machine maintenance with nothing to centralize.
The catch is the scope. This is for OpenAI's Codex, not Anthropic's Claude Code. The names sound similar, the tools are different, and the state directories do not overlap. If you run Claude Code, this script will not help you.
