Explain how to fork an existing Codex CLI session into another folder by using `/status` to get the session id and `codex fork --yolo -C TARGET_FOLDER SESSION_ID`. Use when a user asks to move the current Codex session, change the Codex working directory, fork a Codex conversation into a different project folder, or continue a Codex thread under another workspace root as a separate session.

<!-- CDXC:CodexSessionMove 2026-06-26-13:18: Users need a small bundled Ghostex skill for explaining the supported Codex session move workflow. Codex does not expose an in-place /cd command for changing an active running TUI workspace root, so the reliable path is to resume the saved session with -C.

CDXC:CodexSessionMove 2026-06-26-13:24: Moving should create a separate Codex session instead of continuing the original session directly. Teach codex fork --yolo -C <folder-path> <SESSION_ID> as the primary command so the new thread inherits context, starts under the target working root, and uses full filesystem access when the user wants it. -->

Explain the supported Codex CLI workflow in simple numbered steps.

Steps

  1. Ask the user to run this inside the current Codex session:

``text /status ``

  1. Tell the user to copy the session id shown by /status.
  1. Tell the user to open a shell and fork that session in the target folder:

``bash codex fork --yolo -C ~/dev/hackathon <SESSION_ID> ``

Replace ~/dev/hackathon with the requested folder when the user gave a different target.

Tell the user that --yolo is the Codex alias for bypassing approvals and sandboxing. If they do not want full access, remove --yolo.

Fallback

If the user does not want to copy the id, suggest the recent-session fallback:

bash
codex fork --all --last --yolo -C ~/dev/hackathon

Explain that --all matters because Codex normally filters fork candidates by the current working directory.

Rules

  • Keep the answer short and procedural.
  • Prefer codex fork --yolo -C <folder-path> <SESSION_ID> as the primary command.
  • Mention that this creates a separate forked Codex session under the new working root.
  • Mention that users can remove --yolo if they do not want full-access mode.
  • Do not claim the active running TUI can be moved in place unless current Codex docs expose a real command for that.
  • If the user asks for the exact command only, give only the command and one sentence.
