GPT-5.6

Ok long time Claude Code user here; lately I've started to realize there's other great models out there I should be trying, but I'm hesitant to leave Claude Code behind for something new.

What's the consensus today on codex vs claude code, does it really matter anymore?

Use a harness that doesn't lock you into a moat, like OpenCode.

You wouldn't be leaving Claude Code, just trying something new. If you don't like it just resume using Claude.
