## Platform Adaptation
Skills name actions ("dispatch a subagent", "create a todo", "read a file"), not any one runtime's tools. For your harness's tool equivalents and instructions-file conventions, read the matching file:
If your harness appears here, read its reference file for special instructions:

| Multiple parallel dispatches | Multiple `Agent` calls in one response |
| Task tracking ("create a todo", "mark complete") | `TaskCreate`, `TaskUpdate`, `TaskList`, `TaskGet`; `TodoWrite` in `claude -p` / Agent SDK unless `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TASKS=1` is set |
| Background-process / subagent lifecycle (read output, cancel) | `TaskOutput`, `TaskStop` — these are distinct from the todo tools above and apply to running shells, agents, and remote sessions |

# Codex Tool Mapping

| 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 |

This enables `spawn_agent`, `wait_agent`, and `close_agent` for skills like `dispatching-parallel-agents` and `subagent-driven-development`. When using subagent-driven-development, you should always close implementer and reviewer subagents when they have finished all their work.
