Codex

The Ideal Postcodes skills package ships a .codex-plugin/ manifest. One install command covers Codex.

Install

npx skills add ideal-postcodes/skills

Skills installed:

  • address-finder — multi-country address autocomplete widget
  • postcode-lookup — UK postcode → address dropdown
  • api — direct HTTP integration
  • idpc-cli — non-interactive CLI for account, key, and address operations

Verify

Ask Codex:

How do I add UK postcode lookup to a checkout form using Ideal Postcodes?

Codex should load the postcode-lookup skill and quote the setup() call rather than guessing.

API key

  • Quick test: ak_test (capped at 5 lookups/day, public, breaks in production).
  • Real key: sign up for a free trial balance.
  • Before deploy: restrict the key via Allowed URLs.
