magicpath · openai — Codex plugin: what it does, how to install
Connects Codex with MagicPath to search, inspect, create, and sync UI components using the CLI.
Open on GitHubWhat magicpath does
The plugin lets Codex interact with MagicPath using the magicpath-ai command-line tool. It helps search the component catalog, inspect UI parts, and bring them directly into your codebase. You can also take components from a local directory or Git repository and reconstruct them on a MagicPath canvas.
Included files contain .codex-plugin/plugin.json alongside skill references under skills/magicpath/. For visual inspection, the plugin keeps the project canvas viewable inside Codex's embedded browser. Without the magicpath-ai CLI installed, none of the canvas interactions will function.
What it helps with
- import UI components from MagicPath into local code
- recreate interface code from a Git repository on a canvas
- modify canvas elements directly from local files
- review UI changes using the embedded browser
Example prompts for the agent
- Search MagicPath for a navigation bar component and inspect it
- Export the UI from
src/components/authonto the MagicPath project canvas - Open the MagicPath canvas in the embedded browser to inspect the layout
