# Codex agent and a GitHub issue

On March 16, a Codex agent working on runtime configuration for the npm package
        `@teqfw/web` first compared the task with the example in the specification and then
        explained why a direct copy would break the tests because of constraints in another package,
        `@teqfw/di`, where extra checks had already been added.

The task was then filed as a GitHub issue:
        [teqfw/di#33](https://github.com/teqfw/di/issues/33).
        That format kept the context intact and removed the need for a manual handoff between agents.

In practical terms, the cost was one clarification and one proper task write-up. The agent identified the
        constraint, explained the cause, and turned the fix into a separate issue without requiring a long round of
        back-and-forth.

The takeaway is simple: GitHub issues work well as an interface between agents when the agents can both
        write code and frame technical work clearly. The next step is to automate the intake on a server-side Codex
        agent and close the loop end to end.
