noticing sharp uptick in "i switched to codex" replies lately. a "codex for everything" post flocking the front page on the day of the opus 4.7 release me and coworker just gave codex a 3 day pilot and it was not even close to the accuracy and ability to complete & problem solve through what we've been using claude for. are we being spammed? great. annoying. i clicked into this to read the differences and initial exp…

I actually did the same pilot for a couple of days, while I don't like codex reply, it tackled some problems that claude were spinning for 20 minutes in 5 minutes. Now I have them side by side for codex to review claude's plan and it always find something that claude missed. The reply and the format though is not as good as claude. Pros and cons really, there are many cases where claude weren't able to debug prod issues like codex did as well for me

Well, I can share my experience from a few days ago. Gave the same task (a major refactor) to both Claude and Codex. Codex finished in 5 minutes, Claude was still spinning after 20 minutes. Also it used up all my usage, about twice over (the 5-hour window rolled over in the middle of the task, so the usage for one task added up to 192%). Codex usage was 9%. So, 21x difference there, lol They're saying there's bugs la…

> Claude was still spinning after 20 minutes.

I have been using Claude Code on a medium codebase (~2000 files, ~1M lines of code) for over a year and have never had to wait this long. Also I'm on the max plan and have not seen these limits at all.

Opus 4.7 is the first such model: its cyber capabilities are not as advanced as those of Mythos Preview (indeed, during its training we experimented with efforts to differentially reduce these capabilities).

I'm not a security expert and don't know how to properly audit every github repo that I come across. Maybe I sometimes want to build gnome extensions or cool software projects from source and I want some level of checking along the way for known vulnerabilities. They can't claim this is an obvious win for security when it centralizes rather than democratizes security.

Have they effectively communicated what a 20x or 10x Claude subscription actually means? And with Claude 4.7 increasing usage by 1.35x does that mean a 20x plan is now really a 13x plan (no token increase on the subscription) or a 27x plan (more tokens given to compensate for more computer cost) relative to Claude Opus 4.6?

Anthropic isn't going to give us that information. It's not actually static, it depends on subscription demand and idle compute available.

Given they have all of the information and all of the control, do you trust them to be fair?

Interestingly github-copilot is charging 2.5x as much for opus 4.7 prompts as they charged for opus 4.6 prompts (7.5x instead of 3x). And they're calling this "promotional pricing" which sounds a lot like they're planning to go even higher. Note they charge per-prompt and not per-token so this might in part be an expectation of more tokens per prompt. https://github.blog/changelog/2026-04-16-claude-opus-4-7-is-...

With cursor it's half off right now.

I'm finding the "adaptive thinking" thing very confusing, especially having written code against the previous thinking budget / thinking effort / etc modes: https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/adapti... Also notable: 4.7 now defaults to NOT including a human-readable reasoning token summary in the output, you have to add "display": "summarized" to get that: https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-…

Claude Opus 4.6 has been hilarious for me so far: https://i.imgur.com/jYawPDY.png

This is the company that allowed a vibe-release resulting in the leaking the entirety of the Claude Code codebase. What is the bar you're expecting here exactly?

I noticed the same thing. Every Claude release thread is full of comments saying that it's terrible and why they switched to Codex. And vice versa for Codex release threads. At least its not as bad as /r/localllama that is 90% bots now.
