Why
When migrating from Claude Code to Codex, users often do not want to migrate their entire skill library in one pass. They may be testing Codex with one or two high-value skills, migrating a shared skill incrementally, or avoiding unrelated generated artifacts while they review behavior differences.
Before this change, the safe workaround was to create a temporary Claude source tree that contained only the desired skills. That works, but it is awkward and easy to get wrong. The migrator already knows how to convert individual skill files; it just did not expose a first-class selection option.
What changed
--skill <name>flag.namein skill frontmatter.--skillas implying--skills.--skillis used, so the selected run only migrates Claude skills.--skillwith--replace, so a targeted migration cannot accidentally delete unrelated Codex skills.SKILL.mdandreferences/differences.md.skillsdirectory.Benefit
This makes incremental migration much safer and simpler:
--skillsand default migration behavior remains unchanged.Testing
