Review then install
Install targets
Codex install prompt
Install the "Shellcheck" agent skill from https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck. Read its SKILL.md or equivalent instructions first, install only the files needed for this workspace, and summarize any required setup before using it. Skill purpose: ShellCheck, a static analysis tool for shell scripts After the install attempt, report the result to https://www.openagentskill.com/api/agent/outcome with POST JSON {"event_id":"install_<unique-id>","skill_slug":"koalaman-shellcheck","task":"Install Shellcheck","agent":"codex","outcome":"success","install_used":true}. Replace event_id with a unique value and outcome with success or failed. Report success only after the skill is installed and a minimal verification passes.Supply asset profile
