I found codex cli to be significantly better than claude code. It follows instructions and executes the exact change I want without going off on an "adventure" like Claude code. Also the 20 dollars per month sub tier gives very generous limits of the most powerful model option (5.2 codex high).
codex the model (not the cli) is the big thing here. I've used it in CC and w/ my claude setup, it can handle things Opus could never. it's really a secret weapon not a lot of people talk about. I'm not even using xhigh most of the time.
Yo, mind explaining your setup in a bit more detail? I agree completely - I like the Claude Code harness, but think Codex (the model) is significantly better as a coding model.
I'm struggling with landing in a good way to use them together. If you have a way you like, I'd love to hear it.
hey I’m just spinning up in ssl birdsong models (BirdMAE, SongMAE, etc) can you share any resources? My email is stevens.994@osu.edu, would love to read your work.
I work on SSL bio acoustic models as context.
