name: oracle description: Get a second opinion by bundling a prompt + a curated file set, then asking another powerful LLM for debugging, refactor advice, design checks, or cross-validation.

Oracle (cross-agent)

Use this skill when you want a fast “second brain” pass from the other agent:

• In Codex: bundle context, then ask Claude CLI (Opus 4.5) for review.
• In Claude: bundle context, then ask Codex CLI (GPT‑5.2, xhigh reasoning) for review.

This skill uses a tiny local bundler script.

Workflow

1. Pick the smallest file set that contains the truth (avoid secrets by default).
2. Verify the selected files / bundle look right.
3. Run the Oracle script for your current agent.

Commands

• When running in Codex:

  • Preview selection: "$HOME/.agents/skills/oracle/scripts/oracle-bundle" --dry-run -p "<task>" --file "src/**" --file "!**/*.test.*"
  • Preview bundle: "$HOME/.agents/skills/oracle/scripts/oracle-bundle" -p "<task>" --file "src/**" --file "!**/*.test.*"
  • Run: "$HOME/.agents/skills/oracle/scripts/oracle-to-claude" -p "<task>" --file "src/**" --file "!**/*.test.*"

• When running in Claude or any other agent:

  • Preview selection: "$HOME/.agents/skills/oracle/scripts/oracle-bundle" --dry-run -p "<task>" --file "src/**" --file "!**/*.test.*"
  • Preview bundle: "$HOME/.agents/skills/oracle/scripts/oracle-bundle" -p "<task>" --file "src/**" --file "!**/*.test.*"
  • Run: "$HOME/.agents/skills/oracle/scripts/oracle-to-codex" -p "<task>" --file "src/**" --file "!**/*.test.*"

Tips

• Prefer a minimal file set over “whole repo”.
• If you need diffs reviewed, paste the diff into the prompt or attach the diff file via --file.
• Make the prompt completely standalone: include error text, constraints, and the desired output format (plan vs patch vs pros/cons).
• Never include secrets (.env, tokens, key files).
• Oracle can be slow while it reasons. Allow it several minutes to process.
