## Codex harness adaptations

Generated from a Claude Code command. Where the procedure references these Claude-only surfaces, adapt as follows:

- Native worktrees (`EnterWorktree`/`ExitWorktree` tool calls, `.claude/worktrees/` paths): use plain git instead, with the worktree as a VISIBLE SIBLING of the repo - `git worktree add ../<repo>-<branch> -b <branch>` (or `$FLOW_WORKTREE_BASE/<repo>-<branch>` when that env var is set), work inside it, then `git worktree remove ../<repo>-<branch>` when done.
- Helper scripts referenced as `scripts/<name>` are bundled under `scripts/` in this skill directory (byte-identical copies from the claude-power-pack checkout); some expect sibling repo resources, so prefer a full checkout when one is available.
- Network: this skill's bundled helpers appear to call the network (`gh`, `git fetch`/`push`, `curl`, `aws`, HTTP). Codex's workspace sandbox has no network, and an allow rule for `gh` covers only a top-level `gh` command, never one a helper runs. Run these helpers with escalated permissions. From inside the sandbox, "error connecting to api.github.com" means no network, not a GitHub outage or a bad login.

# Flow: Start Working on an Issue
