I hated this so much. Both acli, which my agents have to rediscover how to use from --help every time, and the MCP, which I have to reauthenticate against frequently. I have replaced both with a "skill" that just describes where to find an Atlassian API key and which version of the API to use. Works perfectly every time.
I used both. Claude Code seems more generous with its quota, which is why I use it as my main driver. That said, Codex does seem more capable, terse, and faster. There are some tasks that Claude can't handle but Codex can. One example was a WinForms binding/project deserialization bug. Sorry, the code is a mess, so even I couldn't quite figure out which part was causing which problem. I initially thought the bug woul…
while everyone is somehow still stuck on and fascinated by claude, heres your quick update on the sota of coding models and harnesses mid august 2026 codex is good, both cli and desktop app, you get lots of usage on any plan. sol is good! and gets the job done, write or dictate a very long and thoughtful prompt, and leave sol xhigh or max fast working on it for an hour or so omp is an amazing harness, any feature cla…
Not mentioning Grok 4.6 here is a crime. Fast and accurate. And it can communicate, unlike the gobbledygook that comes out of Claude.
Here's a quick review I just posted if anyone's interested:
I’ve been experimenting with this for a while, and right now I’m using Luna xhigh as my default. Previously I was using Sol medium. Sol medium is a great balance between speed and being thorough, but it’s quite expensive. Luna xhigh seems to compensate for slightly lower intelligence by thinking and reasoning for longer, so tasks can take more time to complete. But it’s crazy cheap. I also have some custom evals usin…
Makes me wonder if the current Luna prices are sustainable.
> Changes created by Codex had fewer comments in Ruby/Ruby on Rails code. I liked that a lot, and I will soon share some experiments I ran on this. Why is fewer comments a good thing?
Claude is creating verbose comments with recent models and people are are tired of it
I honestly would've used Claude more if not for the confusing presentation/font, I'm not an expert on this subject, Codex is just a lot easier on my eyes. Yes I have tried different settings already.

That's surprising to me. I recently switched from Claude to Codex because I was blowing through my Claude limits. With Codex I haven't been able to use up all of my usage on the 20x plan, with Claude and fable I could do that in a day. Codex is also a lot faster than Claude. I do think Fable is slightly better and can come up with better abstractions than Codex but trying to read it's output became really frustrating…

This is strange, but you were using Codex Terra, or Sol?
