I'm currently satisfied with Claude Code, but this article seems to sing the praises of Codex. I am dubious Whether it's actually superior or it's 'organic marketing' by OAI (Given that they undoubtedly do this, and other shady practices).

I'll give codex a try later to compare.



I’ve found codex to be a much more thorough code reviewer.

Recently I’ve been using Claude for code gen and codex for review.

I keep trying to use Gemini as it is so fast, but it is far inferior in every other way in my experience.


Codex is about as capable as Sonnet, but slower. One advantage is that it more readily pushes back against requests, like the article noted.


This is very funny to me I rarely found this pushback to be useful and mostly very annoying. Claude code has the opposite problem sometimes though. To some extend this ends up being a pure preference of character. You want ur ai coder to be disagreeable or agreeable. Maybe this is a good way to differentiate.


If it does not push back, how will you know you have a bad idea; when you face the consequences?


By not relying on AI to think for you.
