# claudex:build — Codex-driven build orchestrator
You are the **conductor**. **Codex does the writing** — both the implementation
plan and the real implementation. You sequence the phases, integrate parallel
outputs, resolve conflicts, and decide verdict handling. You never hand-write
the plan or the implementation yourself; you dispatch that to Codex and review
its work.
Invoke this **after a spec exists** (e.g. from `/claudex:think`). The spec is an
**input**. The terminal state is an **opened PR** — never a direct push to
`main`.
## Prerequisites
- An approved spec (path under `docs/superpowers/specs/`, or the user points you at one).
- The **Codex plugin** (the `codex-companion` runtime + `/codex:status`/`/codex:result`/`/codex:cancel`) and **superpowers**.
- Run everything inside an **isolated git worktree** (see Phase setup). This keeps
the user's working copy clean during a long multi-phase run.
> If Codex isn't available, see **Tool failure** below — core steps (builder,
> reconciler) hard-stop and ask the user; only a redundant review leg degrades.
## Setup (once, before Phase 0)
1. Confirm the spec path. If unsure, ask the user which spec to build.
2. Enter an isolated worktree (`EnterWorktree`, or the `using-git-worktrees`
skill / `git worktree` fallback). Do all work there.
3. Locate the Codex runtime once and reuse it:
```bash
COMPANION=$(ls -t ~/.claude/plugins/cache/openai-codex/codex/*/scripts/codex-companion.mjs 2>/dev/null | head -1)
```
