Skill instructions
OpenAI Docs Provide authoritative, current guidance from OpenAI developer docs using the developers.openai.com MCP server. "Docs MCP" means mcpopenaiDeveloperDocssearchopenaidocs and mcpopenaiDeveloperDocsfetchopenaidoc; for API reference, schema, parameter, or required-field questions, also use mcpopenaiDeveloperDocsgetopenapispec when available. Official-domain web search is fallback after those tools are unavailable or unhelpful. Broad Codex questions use the manual helper before Docs MCP. This skill also owns model selection, API model migration, and prompt-upgrade guidance. Workflow Configuration Source Priority - For Codex self-knowledge, use the Codex source route below; it owns when to use the manual helper, Docs MCP, or bounded uncertainty. - For non-Codex OpenAI docs questions, use mcpopenaiDeveloperDocssearchopenaidocs to find the most relevant doc pages. - For non-Codex OpenAI docs questions, fetch the relevant page with mcpopenaiDeveloperDocsfetchopenaidoc before answering
