[Bug]: Plugins/Skills not brought over from the codex app #2168

Before submitting

• I searched existing issues and did not find a duplicate.
• I included enough detail to reproduce or investigate the problem.

Area

apps/desktop

Steps to reproduce

1. Install a plugin in the codex app that has skills
2. Ask codex if it has those skills, it should answer yes
3. Ask codex in T3 Code if it has those skills, it should answer no (I also tried restarting both apps, didn't help)

Expected behavior

Codex in T3 Code behaves the same as codex in the codex app, including any plugins, mcp servers or skills

Actual behavior

Codex in T3 Code doesn't have any of the skills from the 2 plugins that I installed in the codex app, this is a critical issue as those plugins improve the quality of the code that it outputs massively.

Impact

Simply using the laggy codex app for now :(
