Codex Agent Guidelines

Memory of successful fixes

After each successful fix, write a memory entry in memory/examples/.
Each entry must include: Issue Description, State, Action, Result, Diff Patch, and Rationale.
Keep entries short, factual, and scoped to the repo.
If a fix is later invalid, annotate the entry with an "Outdated" note instead of deleting it.

Always verify changes by running the relevant workflow/test when possible.
If verification fails, adjust strategy and retry with a clean state; avoid compounding changes.
Stop after 2-3 failed attempts and surface a clear summary for human review.

Make minimal, targeted changes. Avoid unrelated refactors.
Use least-privilege tokens; prefer GITHUB_TOKEN, fall back to PAT secrets only when required.
Do not assume files or APIs exist; confirm before using them.
