Prepare your repo for Codex to work safely
Codex performs as well as the context your repo gives it. Guard scores how ready your repository is, drafts the instructions it is missing, and keeps that context aligned with the code as it changes.
1 repo · setup in about 5 minutes · no card, no commitment
01
Context is what separates a good run from a risky one
Give Codex a documented repo and it works with your conventions. Give it an undocumented one and it guesses at structure, tests, and what must not break, then ships a confident change based on a wrong guess. Readiness closes that gap.
02
What Guard checks for Codex
Guard scores the repo against what the agent needs to work safely:
- Clear repo instructions covering product goals, structure, and checks
- Conventions to follow and anti-patterns to avoid
- Load-bearing code marked so it is not broken casually
- Context organized so the agent can find the right rule quickly
- No secrets or sensitive paths leaked into instructions
03
Audit, then draft what's missing
Guard produces a readiness score and helps generate the AGENTS.md and repo instructions that fill the gaps, grounded in your actual code, not a generic template.
04
Kept current as the code changes
Stale instructions mislead the agent. Guard re-audits on a schedule and proposes updates as reviewable pull requests, so Codex keeps working from context that is still accurate.
Quick questions
What does repo readiness for Codex mean?
It means the repo gives Codex the context it needs to change code safely: accurate instructions, clear boundaries, and tests that prove behavior. Guard audits those gaps and the risks they create.
Will Guard change my code?
Not on its own. Guard audits the repo and proposes updates as reviewable GitHub issues or pull requests. A person reviews and merges, nothing changes automatically.
How long does a readiness audit take?
Setup takes about five minutes through a revocable GitHub App, and the first readiness report lands when the audit completes. No IDE plugin or CI changes are required.
