Coding Agent Docs

Use the local reference snapshots before relying on memory for Claude Code or Codex coding-agent behavior.

Locate Docs

Run:

agent-db --reference-root

Treat the output as REFERENCE_ROOT.

Start with:

REFERENCE_ROOT/README.md for the curated human index
REFERENCE_ROOT/claude/README.md for the generated Claude docs index
REFERENCE_ROOT/codex/README.md for the generated Codex docs index

Do not bulk-read the generated docs tree. Search first with rg, then open only the matching files.

Lookup Workflow

Identify whether the question is about Claude Code, Codex, or both.
Search the relevant generated index with focused terms.
Open the most relevant local markdown file.
Cite or summarize from local docs when answering behavior, configuration, or command questions.
If local docs appear stale and freshness matters, use the source link at the bottom of the generated index or curl the direct upstream markdown URL.

URL To Local Path

Claude:

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/<slug>.md
REFERENCE_ROOT/claude/<slug>.md

Codex:

https://developers.openai.com/codex/<slug>.md
REFERENCE_ROOT/codex/<slug>.md

The Codex API docs are not the default source for coding-agent behavior. Use them only when the user asks about building integrations with OpenAI services.

Freshness

Use:

agent-db --refresh

Refresh when the user asks for current docs, when local docs fail to answer a product behavior question, or when upstream links in the generated indexes show relevant pages that are missing locally.

For a single page, prefer curling the upstream .md URL instead of refreshing the full database.
