Write your task in **natural language**.

✅ Example prompts:

- “📂 Explain the repo structure for a new team member.”
- “🐞 Fix a bug in `jumpSearch()` when handling empty arrays.”
- “🌐 Add a basic web UI to trigger sorting algorithms from a browser.”

**🔁 Use Two Modes:**

**📝 Best Practices:**

- Be **clear and concise**
- Break down large requests into **smaller subtasks**

**🔍 Reviewing Codex Work**

Codex performs the task in steps:

- Reads `AGENTS.md` (if present)
- Clones repo
- Executes commands and builds logic

When done:

- View a **diff** (added lines in green, removed in red)
- Review logs for step-by-step reasoning
- Create a **pull request** directly from the UI with a prefilled description
