Codex AutoSkin built-in theme

Switch AutoSkin to Caishen Readable.

Caishen Readable is merged into Codex AutoSkin as a data-only built-in theme. This page is the source handoff: apply it from AutoSkin, inspect the original pack files, download portable theme packages, and keep a restore path visible.

macOS

Install AutoSkin, then switch theme.

The macOS script uses the Codex app runtime and persists the active theme through the AutoSkin watcher.

git clone https://github.com/Finderchangchang/codex-autoskin.git
cd codex-autoskin
scripts/autoskin-macos.sh install
scripts/autoskin-macos.sh theme caishen-readable fullscreen
Windows

Quickstart, then select Caishen.

Windows users can run the standard quickstart, then call the built-in theme switcher directly.

git clone https://github.com/Finderchangchang/codex-autoskin.git
cd codex-autoskin
.\quickstart.ps1
node scripts\set-theme.mjs caishen-readable fullscreen
Restore

Keep rollback obvious.

AutoSkin keeps restore commands in the upstream README. On macOS use `scripts/autoskin-macos.sh restore` or `uninstall`; on Windows use `scripts\restore-dream-skin.ps1`.

Source pack

Original files stay visible.

The public pack contains background artwork, theme.json, README, DreamSkin Studio import, portable .cds-theme package, and install prompts. Use it if you want to remix outside AutoSkin.

Skill path

Stage with our pack installer.

The Skill path is useful when users want Codex to fetch and inspect the pack before applying it through their preferred skin manager.

npx skills add ChannelerH/codex-skin-packs --skill codex-skin-pack-installer --global --agent codex --yes
python3 "$CODEX_SKILL_DIR/scripts/fetch_skin_pack.py" caishen-readable
Install the Codex Skin Pack Installer skill first:
npx skills add ChannelerH/codex-skin-packs --skill codex-skin-pack-installer --global --agent codex --yes

Keep the native Codex layout interactive. Do not publish or upload private workspace screenshots.
After applying, verify Home, Task, Diff, and Composer readability. Then tell me how to restore the default theme.
Why this page exists

Traffic from AutoSkin needs a direct path.

Generic galleries make users work too hard. AutoSkin users already know the engine; they need the exact built-in theme name, commands, source proof, downloads, and restore instructions in one place.

Safety boundary

No private Codex screenshots.

Caishen Readable uses public-safe generated artwork and theme data. The page does not publish task names, project names, chats, file paths, or real workspace screenshots.

Independence

Community project, not official.

Codex Skin Gallery and Codex AutoSkin are community projects and do not claim OpenAI affiliation.
