Contribute Your Workflow Or Tool

Have a workflow that works, a tool worth listing, or a correction to an existing entry?

• Submit a tool.
• Submit a workflow.
• Report a stale entry.
• Suggest a source candidate.

Self-promotion is allowed when it maps to a real workflow, includes source links, states limits, discloses affiliation, and names the human review boundary. See CONTRIBUTING.md.

What This Is

This is a practical directory and playbook for Codex-powered work:

• Copy-ready workflows and prompts.
• Human review checklists.
• Source-backed tool and MCP entries.
• Contribution paths for workflows, tools, templates, and workspace-native agent apps.

It is not a generic AI tools list, a replacement for official docs, a ranking site, or a place for unsupported product claims.

Repo Map

• WORKFLOWS.md: index of the starter workflows.
• TOOLS.md: curated Codex-adjacent tool directory.
• CHECKLISTS.md: compact review, source, privacy, and approval checks.
• SOURCES.md: source map, freshness policy, and claim boundaries.
• data/catalog.yml: structured catalog used to keep entries consistent.
• CONTRIBUTING.md: contribution standards and self-promotion rules.

Entry Standard

Every useful entry should answer:

• Who is this for?
• What work problem does it solve?
• What input does it need?
• What output should Codex or the tool produce?
• What must a human review before trusting it?
• What does the source support, and what does it not support?
