Description
We should look into remapping claude skills to codex skills (and vice-versa) to lean further into the multi-model multi-harness point. It would be cool if as a claude code user I open up posthog code, and all my claude skills also worked in my codex sessions without me having to do anything.
- I don't think we actually need an agent to translate Claude skill definitions to Codex skill definitions, it can probably be a simple remapper that just translates the file format into the codex format and loads them from disk/memory during session initialization. ~Charl

Research direction
Start by locating the existing skill-loading and session-initialization entry points, then inspect how Claude and Codex skill definitions are represented on disk or in memory. Done means a Claude skill can be loaded in Codex sessions and a Codex skill in Claude sessions without manual conversion.
