FAQPage Schema
How do I delegate complex debugging tasks to an AI agent for deep investigation?▼

The rescue command supports background execution, allowing you to offload long-running implementation and diagnosis tasks to Codex while preserving your current working context for other operations.

Can I resume a previous Codex thread when offloading a stalled implementation task?▼

Yes, the rescue command supports thread resume functionality, allowing you to continue a previous Codex rescue thread with full context rather than starting a fresh investigation from scratch.

Do I need a specific subagent installed to delegate long-running work to Codex?▼

Yes, the codex-rescue subagent dependency is required, as it handles the underlying task routing, model selection, and result propagation between your environment and Codex.

What is the best way to offload a second implementation pass when my AI agent is stuck?▼

Delegating the task to Codex via the rescue subagent is the best way to handle a second implementation pass, as it routes the complex work away from your stuck agent for a deep fix.

Can I select a specific model when routing diagnosis tasks to Codex?▼

Yes, the rescue command includes model selection options during task delegation, allowing you to choose the appropriate Codex model for your specific diagnosis or implementation requirements.
