Tandem Workflow Architect for Codex

Plan with Codex. Govern with Tandem. Run with evidence.

The Tandem Codex Plugin gives Codex the Tandem-specific rules, commands, docs, and API handoffs it needs to design workflows correctly. Codex helps shape the plan; Tandem validates, imports, governs, and runs it.

What it gives Codex

Codex gets Tandem's workflow grammar.

Design from intent

Codex asks the right planning questions, then shapes the trigger, agents, DAG stages, prompts, outputs, and policy gates into Tandem-native workflow structure.

Validate against Tandem

The plugin routes drafts through the real Tandem engine for preview, validation, import checks, and error repair instead of inventing fields from memory.

Keep execution governed

External writes, paid actions, public posts, irreversible changes, and live runs stay behind explicit approval gates and Tandem audit trails.

Workflow loop

A safer path from idea to live automation.

The plugin is deliberately not a second runtime. It turns Codex into a planning surface, then hands the work back to Tandem whenever validation, import, governance, or execution matters.
