What variant of Codex are you using?

IDE Extension,Cursor/Vs code

What feature would you like to see?

Previously, there was a skills menu in the codex plugin where you could see the relevant installed skills. Currently, there is no such menu, only a plugin menu, which makes it difficult to visually see the locally installed skills. This feature is very useful, why remove it? Some people are also discussing this online: https://www.reddit.com/r/codex/comments/1sjpr3h/where_did_the_skills_menu_go/

extent analysis

TL;DR

The skills menu feature may need to be reinstated or an alternative solution provided to visually display locally installed skills in the Codex plugin.

Guidance

  • Review the Codex plugin's documentation and release notes to see if the skills menu was intentionally removed or replaced with a different feature.
  • Check the Reddit discussion thread provided for potential workarounds or user-developed solutions.
  • Consider submitting a feature request to the Codex plugin developers to reinstate the skills menu or provide an alternative way to view installed skills.
  • Examine the plugin's settings and configuration options to see if there's a way to customize the menu or display installed skills.

Notes

The issue lacks technical details about the Codex plugin's implementation, making it difficult to provide a specific code-based solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Since the skills menu feature is no longer available, users may need to rely on alternative methods, such as checking the plugin's documentation or submitting a feature request, to find a suitable replacement.
