Install work-router for Codex and Claude Code

Installs for the current user

codex plugin marketplace add rl0ve/agent-skills
codex plugin marketplace upgrade rl0ve-agent-skills
codex plugin add work-router@rl0ve-agent-skills

Paste and run these commands in a terminal with Codex. They add and refresh the rl0ve-agent-skills catalog, then install this plugin.

Compatibility: the page URL and API slug “work-router” remain stable.

Codex: work-router@agent-plugin-marketplace → work-router@rl0ve-agent-skills

The installer fetches third-party code from the source repository shown on this page. This directory validates manifest structure and source location, but does not perform a security audit; review the manifest, components, and source before installing.

Get the source manually

$ git clone https://github.com/rl0ve/agent-skills

Clone the source repository, then follow its setup instructions to add the plugin to a compatible client. The plugin root is plugins/work-router/.

Included Skills4

check-routing-setupskills/check-routing-setup/SKILL.md

Inspect the active Codex or Claude Code host, router components, model catalog, and workspace constraints. Run only when the user explicitly asks to check or troubleshoot the router setup.

deduplicate-skillsskills/deduplicate-skills/SKILL.md

Audit and consolidate duplicate or overlapping installed skills across Codex. Use for skill cleanup, competing routers, repeated skill names, or duplicate plugins; distinguish exact copies, variants, complementary specialists and inactive remnants before proposing or applying scoped changes.

discover-capabilitiesskills/discover-capabilities/SKILL.md

Find and evaluate missing agent skills, plugins, or integrations when the user asks to extend capabilities or an installed capability cannot cover the task. Check existing capabilities, compare current sources, and avoid duplicate installs.

route-ai-workskills/route-ai-work/SKILL.md

Route substantial agent work to the leanest reliable parent or subagent configuration using task shape, context coupling, ambiguity, risk, latency, and token use. Use for model or effort selection, delegation, parallel work, large context, architecture, debugging, review, long autonomous jobs, or when the user asks to save tokens or time. Do not delegate trivial work.
