I am super bullish on claude code / codex cli + LSP and other deterministic codemod and code intelligence tools. I was playing around with codex this weekend and honestly having a great time (my opinion of it has 180'd since gpt-5.2(-codex) came out) but I was getting annoyed at it because it kept missing references when I asked it to rename or move symbols. So I built a skill that teaches it to use rope for mechanic…

Are you having a positive experience with Codex compared to Claude Code? Codex in my brief experience was... not good w/ 5.1

This is an ignorant question, but, what is the benefit of this if you also have your project open in an editor or IDE (presuming they integrate language server?) If you're vibe coding without an editor, would this have any benefits to code quality over a test suite and the standard linter for a language?

Your test suite and linter don't code. They don't help your agent look up definitions of variables, etc.

Ah, it's about making language documentation available, and making crawling the app for understanding cheaper/more direct?

If you want to explore the ecosystem of Claude Code plugins, see https://claude-plugins.dev/

With a fair disclaimer, that it is very easy to vibe-code a skill oneself, with both pros (you can create one just for you!) and cons (if you look online, these are of any quality, quite a few with some hard-coded versions or practices).

Maybe I'm the only one, but does anyone else have an issue on macOS where Claude Code never updates itself automatically and you always have an error? I guess it's in times when I leave the CLI tool running and an update comes in overnight. But the alert seems to indicate it should update and fails.

Just to provide another datapoint - tried codex September / October after seeing the glowing reviews here, and it was, all in all, a huge letdown.

It seems to be very efficient context-wise, but at the same time made precise context-management much harder.

Opus 4.5 is quite a magnificent improvement over Sonnet 4.5, in CC, though.

Re tfa - I accidentally discovered the new lsp support 2 days ago on a side project in rust, and it’s working very well.

Uninstall it and install it via home brew fixed it for me.
