Install targets

Codex install prompt

Install the "press-release" agent skill from https://github.com/realjaymes/marketingagentskills/tree/main/skills/press-release. 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: Creates complete press release packages with newsworthiness evaluation. Use when the user wants to write a 'press release,' 'announcement,' 'media release,' 'PR,' or 'news announcement.'

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. Recorded instruction path: skills/press-release/SKILL.md. Recorded revision: 105c79135dae57134de89086eeb9d2c0ee41de39. Confirm the source matches these instructions.
