Phase B: config-file refs + per-platform tool refs + spec

Browse Source 
Two structural changes:

1. Generalize CLAUDE.md-specific guidance:
   - "Project-specific conventions (put in CLAUDE.md)" → "(put in
     your instructions file)" in writing-skills/SKILL.md
   - "(explicit CLAUDE.md violation)" → "(explicit instruction-file
     violation)" in receiving-code-review/SKILL.md
   - The instruction-priority list in using-superpowers/SKILL.md
     stays inclusive (CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, AGENTS.md) — that's
     load-bearing, not a substitution opportunity.

2. Per-platform tool reference files at skills/using-superpowers/
   references/{claude-code,codex,copilot,gemini}-tools.md. Each ref
   documents:
   - The runtime's preferred instructions file (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md,
     GEMINI.md, etc.) and how it loads
   - The runtime's personal-skills directory + cross-runtime
     ~/.agents/skills/ path where applicable
   - Action-language → tool-name mapping table

Tool names and table content reflect the source-verified state from
direct inspection of openai/codex, google-gemini/gemini-cli,
sst/opencode, and the installed @github/copilot package. Filenames
and behaviors are sourced from each runtime's official docs.

Files in this commit also pick up later-phase changes that
accumulated on the same files (using-superpowers/SKILL.md "How to
Access Skills" overhaul, action-language flowchart, refs' final
table content). The bundled spec records original scope.

# Codex Tool Mapping
Skills use Claude Code tool names. When you encounter these in a skill, use your platform equivalent:
Skills speak in actions ("dispatch a subagent", "create a todo", "read a file"). On Codex these resolve to the tools below.
| Skill references | Codex equivalent |
|-----------------|------------------|
| `Task` tool (dispatch subagent) | `spawn_agent` (see [Subagent dispatch requires multi-agent support](#subagent-dispatch-requires-multi-agent-support)) |
| Multiple `Task` calls (parallel) | Multiple `spawn_agent` calls |
| Task returns result | `wait_agent` |
| Task completes automatically | `close_agent` to free slot |
| `TodoWrite` (task tracking) | `update_plan` |
| `Skill` tool (invoke a skill) | Skills load natively — just follow the instructions |
| `Read`, `Write`, `Edit` (files) | Use your native file tools |
| `Bash` (run commands) | Use your native shell tools |
| Action skills request | Codex equivalent |
|----------------------|------------------|
| Read a file | `shell` (e.g., `cat`, `head`, `tail`) — Codex reads files via shell |
| Create / edit / delete a file | `apply_patch` (structured diff for create, update, delete) |
| Run a shell command | `shell` |
| Search file contents | `shell` (e.g., `grep`, `rg`) |
| Find files by name | `shell` (e.g., `find`, `ls`) |
| Fetch a URL | `shell` with `curl` / `wget` — Codex has no native fetch tool |
| Search the web | `web_search` (enabled by default; configurable in `config.toml` via the top-level `web_search` setting — `live`, `cached`, or `disabled`) |
| Invoke a skill | Skills load natively — just follow the instructions |
| Dispatch a subagent (`Subagent (general-purpose):` template) | `spawn_agent` (see [Subagent dispatch requires multi-agent support](#subagent-dispatch-requires-multi-agent-support)) |
| Multiple parallel dispatches | Multiple `spawn_agent` calls in one response |
| Wait for subagent result | `wait_agent` |
| Free up subagent slot when done | `close_agent` |
| Task tracking ("create a todo", "mark complete") | `update_plan` |
## Instructions file
When a skill mentions "your instructions file", on Codex this is **`AGENTS.md`** at the project root. Codex also reads `~/.codex/AGENTS.md` for global context, and an `AGENTS.override.md` (in the project tree or `~/.codex/`) takes precedence when present. Codex walks from the project root down to the current working directory, concatenating `AGENTS.md` files it finds along the way, up to `project_doc_max_bytes` (32 KiB by default).
## Personal skills directory
User-level skills live at **`$CODEX_HOME/skills/`** (default `~/.codex/skills/`). Codex also reads the cross-runtime path **`~/.agents/skills/`** (shared with Copilot CLI and Gemini CLI). When both directories exist at the same scope, Codex loads them both as separate skill catalogs — Codex's docs don't currently document a precedence between them. Each skill is a subdirectory containing a `SKILL.md` (with `name` and `description` frontmatter).
