Handoff to Codex CLI

Use the shared `session-relay` workflow. Codex starts its own native session and reads a packet containing the goal, current state, decisions, Git evidence, verification, and next steps.

ROOT="${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR:-${GROK_WORKSPACE_ROOT:-}}"
[[ -n "$ROOT" ]] || ROOT="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)"
RELAY="$ROOT/.director-mode/bin/director-relay"
[[ -x "$RELAY" ]] || RELAY="$HOME/.claude/bin/director-relay"

"$RELAY" create \
  --from <claude|grok> --to codex \
  --goal "..." --summary "..." --next "..."

"$RELAY" continue --to codex

The second command prints the interactive `codex` invocation. Add `--run` only when the user wants it launched now. Use `--headless` when a one-shot `codex exec` continuation is appropriate.

Codex reads the repository's `AGENTS.md`, reusable skills from `.agents/skills/`, and generated agents from `.codex/agents/`. Confirm those surfaces with the installed CLI when debugging discovery.

Do not add bypass, approval, sandbox, or network flags as part of the handoff. Those controls belong to the Codex session and remain at their current native settings.
