Making slop before slop was slop.




Sad that @vercel has (seems to) abandoned the Open Plugins standard and instead went in for Skills. A plugin is a higher level abstraction. It bundles skills, MCPs, hooks, commands, configs, everything. I don't want to think about assembling MCPs and skills myself. I want to install one plugin and have everything work. 𝚗𝚙𝚡 𝚙𝚕𝚞𝚐𝚒𝚗𝚜 𝚊𝚍𝚍 feels like 𝚗𝚙𝚖 𝚒𝚗𝚜𝚝𝚊𝚕𝚕 for agent capabilities, and it should be standardized. OpenAI is embracing it, same with Anthropic and xAI. If you hate the idea of bundling, you can flexibly use the Skills CLI to install individual skills, or @executorsh / mcpm CLI to install MCPs. For the most part I just want to take the whole thing, especially for vendors. You can install a skills repo with plugins CLI and it works fine, not vice versa (case in point: @impeccable_ai) The plugins package is still live on NPM with 10k weekly downloads, the website is still live on Vercel, but all related repos got removed. Last update was 3 months ago, and the CLI doesn’t seem to work anymore. The existing Codex plugins use the key format github.com--@plugins-cli (e.g., github.com-openai-skills@plugins-cli). But the plugins CLI v1.3.1 uses just plugin.name@plugins-cli (e.g., skills@plugins-cli), derived from the manifest or directory name. Codex can't match these new entries.






Updates for Codex and ChatGPT Work users. No nerfing, only good stuff! - We have landed inference optimizations and are passing down savings to all the subscriptions for GPT-5.6 Sol. That should result in around 10% more usage on its own. - We noticed that by changing the context size limit in the product to 372k for GPT-5.6 Sol, up from 272k for GPT-5.5, it resulted in more usage being charged than intended. We have reverted to 272k and will work to roll back out to 372k in the days to come. You should notice that usage drains significantly less after this change. - To understand where the extra usage was coming from, we ran some experiments where reasoning efforts were changed (referred to as juice values under the hood) and have reverted this. - There is slightly more usage of multi-agent than intended in high and xhigh reasoning effort, we are fixing this going forward. Also fixing a small other thing we noticed with auto-review where we can be more efficient. And we continue to have the 5h limit temporarily not apply. Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

OpenAI has reduced GPT-5.6 Sol's thinking budgets in an effort to make the model more efficient They essentially bumped everyone's reasoning down by 1... so if you were running Sol Extra High, you now have to set it to Max to get the same effort So we basically don't have Max reasoning anymore, how do you feel about these changes? 🤔
