Reboot Plugin

A plugin for building on Reboot from your coding agent. The same skills work in both Claude Code and Codex.

Included Skills

Skill	Description
app	Build a Reboot app from a description — routes to chat-app or web-app
chat-app	Build AI Chat Apps (MCP Apps) for ChatGPT, Claude, VSCode, Goose, and others — layers on top of python
web-app	Build standalone Reboot Web Apps — a Reboot backend behind a browser-facing React frontend — layers on top of python
run	Run an existing Reboot app — detects MCP Chat App vs. Web App and starts every process it needs
python	Reboot Python framework reference: proto- or pydantic-defined APIs, Servicers, contexts, refs, scheduling, and testing

The skill files are tool-agnostic. Claude Code invokes skills by name (e.g. /chat-app); Codex selects a skill automatically from its description. Both read the same SKILL.md files and references/.

Installation

The quickest path installs for whichever of Claude Code / Codex you have — having only one is fine, the installer skips the other:

curl -fsSL https://reboot.dev/install.sh | bash

Restart your agent afterward so the new skills and configuration load.

If Codex is detected, the installer pauses to ask whether to disable Codex's sandbox globally — a requirement to work around openai/codex#24933. Decline (n) and the Codex install is skipped entirely; accept (Y, the default) and the installer writes the opt-out into ~/.codex/config.toml. See Differences in Codex vs. Claude Code for the full rationale. For non-interactive installs (CI/CD), set REBOOT_PLUGIN_DISABLE_CODEX_SANDBOX=yes (or no) to pre-answer the prompt.

Claude Code (manual)

Add the Reboot skills marketplace and install the plugin:

# 1. Add the Reboot skills marketplace (one-time).
claude plugin marketplace add reboot-dev/reboot-plugin

# 2. Install the plugin.
claude plugin install reboot@reboot-plugin

To auto-enable for your team, add to your project's .claude/settings.json:

{
  "extraKnownMarketplaces": {
    "reboot-plugin": {
      "source": {
        "source": "github",
        "repo": "reboot-dev/reboot-plugin"
      }
    }
  },
  "enabledPlugins": {
    "reboot@reboot-plugin": true
  }
}

Or run from a checkout without installing:

git clone https://github.com/reboot-dev/reboot-plugin.git
claude --plugin-dir ./reboot-plugin

Codex (manual)

install.sh uses Codex's native plugin system. Equivalent to:

# Register the marketplace (a local checkout, or the GitHub repo).
codex plugin marketplace add ./reboot-plugin   # or: reboot-dev/reboot-plugin

# Install the plugin (skills and hooks are picked up from the bundled
# .codex-plugin/plugin.json + .agents/plugins/marketplace.json).
codex plugin add reboot@reboot-plugin

install.sh then merges a small marked region into ~/.codex/config.toml that:

• enables hooks (features.hooks = true — off by default),
• prepends the plugin's pinned tool shims (uv, node, rbt, …) to PATH for every subprocess via shell_environment_policy.set.PATH. Codex SessionStart hooks can't modify PATH the way Claude Code's can, so this is how the bin/ prepend is wired. set replaces PATH wholesale, so the install-time PATH is baked in after the plugin's bin/ — re-run install.sh to refresh it, and
• disables Codex's sandbox (sandbox_mode = "danger-full-access") to work around openai/codex#24933; see the Differences section for context. install.sh asks for explicit consent before writing this; if you install manually you must add it yourself.

If you check out the plugin and work inside it, the bundled .agents/skills directory makes Codex discover the skills with no install at all (skills only — hooks and the PATH prepend still need the full install).

Differences in Codex vs. Claude Code

The skills behave identically; three pieces of lifecycle automation differ because of Codex limitations:
