Install project-init for Codex and Claude Code

Installs for the current user
codex plugin marketplace add Mar5929/claude-toolkit
codex plugin marketplace upgrade claude-toolkit

Paste and run these commands in a terminal with Codex. They add and refresh the claude-toolkit catalog, then install this plugin.

Compatibility: the page URL and API slug “project-init” remain stable.

  • Codex: project-init@agent-plugin-marketplace → project-init@claude-toolkit

Included Skills4

machine-syncskills/machine-sync/SKILL.md

Audit and synchronize THIS COMPUTER's configured machine-wide Toolkit policy after the marketplace and project-init plugin are bootstrapped. Use when the owner is setting up a new computer, or says things like "set up this machine from my toolkit", "point this computer at the toolkit", "I have a new laptop", "make sure my machine-wide rules are here", "check my global Claude settings against the toolkit", or "/machine-sync". The active set is the Claude rule, required settings values, and machine-wide hook for keeping AI credit out of commits and pull requests. It separately audits explicitly listed retired Codex wiring and offers owner-approved removal. It reports every gap first and changes nothing without approval.

project-initskills/project-init/SKILL.md

Walk the user through initializing a NEW project, one gate at a time: scaffolding & folder structure, guard hooks, the optional System Guide and packaged project knowledge system, optional SOUL.md, AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md, the local-folder work-tracker, and optional standalone toolkit skills. Use when the user is starting a new repo/project and wants help setting up the foundational scaffolding, or says things like "initialize this project", "set up the scaffolding", "/project-init", or "help me get this new repo going". This skill ORCHESTRATES setup: it asks the user how they want each piece, recommends options for their stack, and only acts after they confirm. Every gate is optional and skippable.

project-syncskills/project-sync/SKILL.md

Audit an EXISTING project against the claude-toolkit and set up whatever is missing. Use when the user points a project at the toolkit and says things like "make sure all the tools, rules, and systems from my toolkit are set up in this project", "sync this project with claude-toolkit", "audit this project against the toolkit", or "/project-sync". This skill inventories everything the toolkit currently ships (the general and Salesforce rules libraries, hooks, the optional System Guide, the local-folder work-tracker, the packaged project knowledge system, safe conversion off an older knowledge layout, the session-skills plugin, and any newer systems), cross-references the current project, reports the gaps, including rules the project has but that are behind the toolkit's current version, and closes each gap only with the user's approval.

work-item-lifecycleskills/work-item-lifecycle/SKILL.md

Apply the project's file lifecycle to work-item information. Use when creating, saving, moving, organizing, completing, closing, or archiving work-item files, or when deciding where architecture, solution designs, specifications, lasting decisions, implementation records, presentation deliverables, or retired material belong. Also use for questions like "where should this file go?" and "what happens to this when the ticket is done?" Do not use for a status-only ticket update that changes no project files or lasting information.
