…eads Codex CLI discovers skills from .agents/skills directories ($CWD/.agents/skills up to repo root, and ~/.agents/skills at user scope), not .codex/skills. The README's copy command installed codex-dynamic-workflows into ~/.codex/skills, where Codex never looks — so a user following it verbatim ends up with a Codex-orchestration skill Codex can't find. Point it at ~/.agents/skills and correct the 'Codex's default skills folder' wording.

The README's "clone and copy" install command copies
codex-dynamic-workflowsinto~/.codex/skills/, but Codex CLI doesn't read.codex/skills— it discovers skills from.agents/skillsdirectories ($CWD/.agents/skillsup to the repo root, and~/.agents/skillsat user scope). So a user who follows the README verbatim installs a Codex-orchestration skill into a folder Codex never scans, and it silently never loads.Ref: Codex's own build-skills docs — "Codex reads skills from
.agents/skillsdirectories, not.codex/skills." (The top "Install the AI agent skill at …" line via the agent-skills flow is unaffected; this only fixes the manual clone-and-copy path.)Found while auditing the repo's skills; the scripts and skill bodies otherwise checked clean.
