details to know
- hyv merges a hold-your-voice block into ~/.codex/AGENTS.md without deleting your other rules
- this is rules-only — hyv does not auto-add an mcp_servers.hyv entry to ~/.codex/config.toml
- codex should run the hyv cli (hyv scan …) when the rules fire
limits and edge cases
- if the hyv block is missing: hyv doctor --fix-agents
- advanced users can add a codex mcp server themselves with codex mcp add — not required for this guide
