codex-load-balancer

This skill exposes a tiny CLI (scripts/clb) that:

• chooses a CODEX_HOME source directory for a worker (clb pick)
• chooses an auth credential file from an AUTH_TEAM directory (clb pick-auth)

It is designed to be called by tmux-workflow/scripts/twf when twf_use_load_balancer: true.

Configure

Edit scripts/clb_config.yaml:

• sources: comma-separated list of CODEX_HOME template directories (optional; default fallback is ~/.codex)
• auth_team_dir: required when using pick-auth (should contain multiple auth JSON files; names unrestricted)

pick-auth selection algorithm:

• pick the least-used auth file (usage counts persisted in state_file)
• if tied, pick randomly among the least-used

Commands

• Pick a source directory (used by twf):
  • bash .codex/skills/codex-load-balancer/scripts/clb pick --worker <full> --base <base>
• Pick an auth file (used by twf):
  • bash .codex/skills/codex-load-balancer/scripts/clb pick-auth --worker <full> --base <base>
• Inspect a whole team’s usage by driving Codex /status in tmux (requires tmux + codex):
  • bash .codex/skills/codex-load-balancer/scripts/clb status /abs/path/to/AUTH_TEAM
• List configured sources:
  • bash .codex/skills/codex-load-balancer/scripts/clb list
• Inspect resolved config:
  • bash .codex/skills/codex-load-balancer/scripts/clb where

tmux-workflow integration

Enable in tmux-workflow/scripts/twf_config.yaml:

• twf_use_load_balancer: true

Optional:

• twf_load_balancer_cmd: "/abs/path/to/.codex/skills/codex-load-balancer/scripts/clb"
• or TWF_LOAD_BALANCER_CMD=/abs/path/to/clb

When enabled, twf will:

• call clb pick to choose TWF_CODEX_HOME_SRC (if you didn’t set TWF_CODEX_HOME_SRC explicitly)
• call clb pick-auth and copy the chosen file into each worker home as auth.json (overriding the synced auth.json)
