# Consult Codex Multi-turn consultation with Codex CLI. Maintains a conversation across multiple turns using session persistence, unlike single-shot `/codex-exec`. ## Step 1: Gather Context Identify the 2-5 files most relevant to the problem. Formulate a clear, specific question. Include what has been tried and relevant constraints. ## Step 2: Start Session Run `codex exec` with `-o` to capture the response cleanly. Default to `-s read-only` for safety. Use `-s workspace-write` when the consultation requires running code or reading files outside the workspace. **All `codex` Bash calls require `dangerouslyDisableSandbox: true`** (network access to OpenAI API). Use `.turbo/` as the temp directory — it is in the working directory (sandbox-writable), gitignored, and avoids `$TMPDIR` path mismatches between sandbox and non-sandbox mode. **Non-piped `codex exec` invocations require `< /dev/null`** to avoid hanging on stdin. Codex reads from stdin whenever stdin is non-TTY, and in subprocess contexts the harness leaves stdin connected to a pipe that never EOFs — codex blocks forever, printing only `Reading additional input from stdin...`. The piped form (`cat file | codex exec "..."`) is safe — `cat` closes the pipe after the file. Generate a random session tag at the start to keep files unique for parallel use: ```bash CODEX_TAG=$(head -c 4 /dev/urandom | xxd -p) && mkdir -p .turbo/codex codex exec -s read-only -o ".turbo/codex/$CODEX_TAG.txt" "<question with full context>...
