Codex CLI fails with 'Not inside a trusted directory' error

[alfonsodg]

Problem

Codex CLI execution fails with error: Not inside a trusted directory and --skip-git-repo-check was not specified

Root Cause

Codex CLI has security restrictions that prevent execution outside trusted directories. The current implementation in codex_subagent() doesn't handle this.

Solution

Add --skip-git-repo-check flag to Codex CLI commands in cli_subagent.py:

command = f'codex exec --skip-git-repo-check "{instruction}"'

Affected Code

• roundtable_mcp_server/cli_subagent.py - codex_subagent() function
• Line ~100-150 where Codex CLI command is constructed

Testing

1. Run codex_subagent() with a simple instruction
2. Verify it executes without trusted directory error
3. Ensure project_path is properly handled when provided
