audit — Codex skill: what it does, how to install
Walks through product flows step by step, captures verified screenshots, and flags UX and accessibility issues in chat.
npx skills add openai/plugins --skill audit -a codexWhat audit does
The skill connects to a browser to step through flows like onboarding, checkout, or settings. Before each interaction, it checks the DOM state and waits for visual stability. It verifies every captured frame to discard loading states or cropped views, then saves them with numbered filenames like 01-start.png.
The final summary maps UX flaws and accessibility risks directly to numbered steps and images. It explicitly warns about the limits of visual inspection, since screenshots alone cannot guarantee full accessibility compliance. If asked, the skill can also generate a Figma board, organizing images in rows of 15 with detailed notes.
Run this when you need an evidence-based audit before launch. It is useless if your agent lacks browser tools or shell access.
What it helps with
- audit multi-step onboarding or checkout flows
- capture verified screenshots across an entire user journey
- highlight UX snags and accessibility concerns per screen
- organize audited flow screenshots on a Figma board
