Logic Master

Required Flags

Workflow

1. Identify task type: logic optimization or image-based
2. Prepare inputs: file content or image path
3. Construct Codex command with --yolo flag
4. Execute via bash tool
5. Capture output and delegate to subagent for implementation
6. Verify results with lsp_diagnostics

Image-Based Tasks

Generate Code from Screenshot

# UI mockup to component
codex exec --yolo --image mockup.png "Generate React component matching this design"

# Diagram to code
codex exec --yolo --image architecture.png "Implement the data flow shown in this diagram"

# Error screenshot to fix
codex exec --yolo --image error-screenshot.png "Analyze this error and provide fix"

Multiple Images

codex exec --yolo --image before.png --image after.png "Generate code to transform UI from before to after state"

Logic Optimization Tasks

Algorithm Optimization

# Optimize function
cat src/utils/sort.ts | codex exec --yolo - "Optimize this sorting algorithm for large datasets"

# Reduce complexity
cat src/services/parser.ts | codex exec --yolo - "Refactor to reduce cyclomatic complexity"

Refactoring

# Extract functions
cat src/handlers/user.ts | codex exec --yolo - "Extract reusable validation logic into separate functions"

# Simplify conditionals
cat src/logic/pricing.ts | codex exec --yolo - "Simplify nested conditionals using early returns"

Performance Tuning

# Memory optimization
cat src/data/processor.ts | codex exec --yolo - "Optimize memory usage, avoid unnecessary allocations"

# Async optimization
codex exec --yolo -C src/services "Identify and fix N+1 query patterns"

Output Handling

JSON Output for Parsing

codex exec --yolo --json "Generate utility function" | jq -r '.content'

Save to File

codex exec --yolo -o result.ts "Generate TypeScript interface from this JSON schema"

Resume Session

# Continue previous work
codex exec resume --last "Apply the suggested changes"

Integration with Subagents

After Codex CLI provides analysis/suggestions, delegate implementation:

1. TASK: Implement logic changes based on Codex analysis
2. EXPECTED OUTCOME: Optimized code matching Codex recommendations
3. REQUIRED SKILLS: logic-master
4. REQUIRED TOOLS: Bash (for codex CLI), Read, Edit, lsp_diagnostics
5. MUST DO:
   - Execute codex exec with --yolo flag first
   - Parse Codex output for implementation steps
   - Apply changes using Edit tool
   - Verify with lsp_diagnostics
   - Run tests if available
6. MUST NOT DO:
   - Modify styling/visual elements
   - Skip verification step
   - Ignore Codex warnings or caveats
7. CONTEXT: [file paths, performance requirements, constraints]

Image-Based Workflow Example

1. TASK: Generate component from design mockup
2. EXPECTED OUTCOME: Working React component matching mockup
3. REQUIRED SKILLS: logic-master
4. REQUIRED TOOLS: Bash (for codex CLI), Write, lsp_diagnostics
5. MUST DO:
   - Use codex exec --yolo --image <path> to analyze mockup
   - Create component based on Codex output
   - Match existing component patterns in codebase
   - Verify types with lsp_diagnostics
6. MUST NOT DO:
   - Generate inline styles (use existing CSS framework)
   - Create new dependencies without approval
7. CONTEXT: [mockup path, component location, existing patterns]

Example Complete Workflow

# Step 1: Analyze image and get code suggestion
codex exec --yolo --image ui-mockup.png "Analyze this mockup and describe the React component structure needed" -o analysis.md

# Step 2: Generate implementation
codex exec --yolo --image ui-mockup.png "Generate React component code for this mockup using Tailwind CSS" -o Component.tsx

# Step 3: Verify and integrate
# (delegate to subagent to place file, add imports, run diagnostics)

Troubleshooting

Security Note

--yolo mode bypasses approval and sandbox restrictions. Use only when:

• Working in version-controlled directories
• Changes can be easily reverted
• No sensitive operations or credentials involved
• Running in isolated development environment
