Non-Attack Actions, when played, create a layer. When this layer is created the only cards/abilities that can be used are instants (Or actions that can be played as Instants), before it resolves. That is your 'window'.
in plain words: yes, barbed castaway is an instant and Riptide is a trigger that goes on the stack an resolved before the codex. 😉
