Human Summary
Codex was unable to run gsd-planner subagent with error
agent type is currently not available.I was surprised to not see an issue open for this because it completely broke GSD usage within codex for me. Its possible that this may have been a quirk of just my system.
Agent Summary
What happened
Generated Codex agent TOML files used TOML basic multiline strings for
developer_instructions. Several GSD agents include raw backslashes in regexes, shell snippets, and fenced examples. In TOML basic strings those backslashes are escape sequences, so the generated.tomlfiles became invalid and Codex left those agents unavailable at runtime.What this changes
developer_instructionsto TOML literal multiline stringsVerification
node --test tests/codex-config.test.cjsgsd-*.tomlfiles successfully withtomllibafter the changeImpact
This makes Codex installs generate valid agent configs for planner, verifier, researcher, mapper, and integration-checker prompts that contain raw backslashes.
