README

Excerpt

Codex agent provider

Shortcut: pnpm exec tsx setup/index.ts --step provider-auth codex performs this whole install (manifest-driven from the providers branch: files, barrels, CLI manifest entry, image rebuild) plus auth in one command. The steps below are the same operations, for agent-driven or manual application.

NanoClaw selects each group's agent backend from container_configs.provider (default claude). This skill installs the Codex provider: copy the payload from the providers branch, append one import to each of the three provider barrels, add the pinned Codex CLI to the container manifest (container/cli-tools.json), rebuild, then run the vault auth walk-through.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
