  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 2 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by omnimind-ai on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Install Codex Pet AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/omnimind-ai/OmniBot.git /tmp/OmniBot
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/OmniBot/app/src/main/assets/builtin_skills/install-codex-pet .claude/skills/install-codex-pet
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Install Codex Pet in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Install Codex Pet on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Install Codex Pet is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Install Codex Pet

Install pets into Omnibot's selectable pet directory while preserving the official Codex package format.

Workflow

  1. Extract the lowercase pet slug or collection slug from the request. Do not guess when no slug is present.
  2. Confirm node, npm, and npx are available. If they are missing, report that the embedded {{OMNIBOT_TERMINAL_DISTRIBUTION}} environment needs its base packages installed.
  3. Point the official CLI at Omnibot's Codex-compatible pet root, then run the requested command:
sh
export CODEX_HOME=/workspace/.omnibot
npx --yes codex-pets add claude-pixel

For a collection:

sh
export CODEX_HOME=/workspace/.omnibot
npx --yes codex-pets add-collection cats
  1. Validate each installed pet:
sh
sh /workspace/.omnibot/skills/install-codex-pet/scripts/validate_codex_pet.sh claude-pixel
  1. Report the installed display name and /workspace/.omnibot/pets/<pet-id>/. The appearance page discovers the package automatically; do not copy it into another pet directory.

Rules

  • Keep CODEX_HOME=/workspace/.omnibot for every codex-pets command. The package defaults to /root/.codex, which the Omnibot appearance scanner does not use.
  • Use the npm CLI directly. Do not generate replacement art, rewrite the downloaded manifest, or hand-build a package.
  • Accept only lowercase slugs made from letters, digits, and hyphens.
  • Treat command failures, missing pet.json, missing spritesheet.webp, an id mismatch, or an unexpected spritesheetPath as installation failures.
  • Never expose credentials or add API keys to commands. CODEX_PETS_API_BASE may be used only when the user explicitly provides a trusted alternate service.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Install Codex Pet AI skill do?

Install shared Codex pet packages into Omnibot with the official codex-pets npm CLI. Use when the user asks to add, install, download, import, or sync a pet by slug or collection, especially requests containing commands such as "npx codex-pets add".

Why use Install Codex Pet on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Install Codex Pet is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Install Codex Pet in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/omnimind-ai/OmniBot/tree/main/app/src/main/assets/builtin_skills/install-codex-pet. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Install Codex Pet?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Install Codex Pet?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Install Codex Pet with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Install Codex Pet AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by omnimind-ai. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
