Feature request: reload-skills / reload-plugins for the current session #16653

Summary

Please add a way to reload skills/plugins without restarting the current Codex session.

Problem

Right now, after changing local skills or plugin-provided skills, the current interactive Codex session does not seem to pick them up. The practical workaround is starting a new session.

This is inconvenient when iterating on custom skills, importing skills from another tool, or adjusting local plugin state while actively working.

Requested behavior

A built-in command or equivalent mechanism such as:

• /reload-skills
• /reload-plugins
• codex session refresh
• codex plugin reload

Expected scope

Ideally this would re-scan and refresh at least:

• local skills under ~/.codex/skills and project-local skill locations
• plugin-provided skills
• the current session's available-skills registry / cached skill discovery state

Why this matters

This would make Codex much better for:

• custom skill authoring
• plugin development
• iterative local workflow setup
• long-running sessions where restarting loses momentum

Thanks.
