    Today I did some comparisons of GPT-5.1-Codex-Max (on high) in the Codex CLI versus Gemini 3 Pro in the Gemini CLI. - As a general observation, Gemini is less easy to work with as …

    No, this doesn't seem to be correct, although confusion regarding model names is understandable. o4-mini-high is the label on chatgpt.com for what in the API is called o4-mini with…
