LazyCodex
LazyCodex is an agent harness for Codex that adds project memory, planning, and verified completion.
LazyCodex installs the OmO agent harness inside Codex for complex codebases. It provides project memory, planning, parallel agents, skills, hooks, routing, and verified completion. The software features an ultrawork mode that starts by fanning out research through local implementation readers and document checkers. It uses commands like ulw-plan to turn ideas into work plans and start-work to execute them with strict test-driven development and evidence gates. The loop runs until verified completion with an oracle checking the results before finishing. It also supports team modes with a leader and cooperating Codex threads.
