oh i didn't know that claude code has a desktop app already
And it uses worktrees.

#112These paid offerings geared toward software development must be a hell of a lot "smarter" than the regular chatbots. The amount of nonsense and bad or outright wrong code Gemini and ChatGPT throw at me lately is off the charts. I feel like they are getting dumber.
It’s the inconsistency that gets me. Very similar tasks, similar complexity, same code base, same prompting:
Session A knocks it out of the park. Chef’s kiss.
Session B just does some random vandalism.
Re: The Codex App
#113Looks like they forgot the part of the code editor where you can… edit code. Claude Code in Zed is about the most optimal experience I can imagine. I want the agent on the side and a code editor in the middle.
Usage like this is becoming a rarity. Most people are editing significantly less and "agent interfaces" are slowly taking the focus.
"most" people aren't even using AI yet
Of those that are, most are not vibe coding, so an editor is still required at many points

#114I'm excited to try this out, it seems like it would solve a lot of my workflow issues. I hope there is the ability to review/edit research docs and plans it generates and not just code.

#115Does the Codex app host MCP Apps?
Re: The Codex App
#116It's basically what Emdash ( https://www.emdash.sh/ ), Conductor ( https://www.conductor.build/ ) & CO have been building but as first class product from OpenAI. Begs the question if Anthropic will follow up with a first-class Claude Code "multi agent" (git worktree) app themselves.
Maybe a dumb question on my side; but if you are using a GUI like emdash with Claude Code, are you getting the full claude code harness under the hood or are you "just" leveraging the model ?
yeah, I wanted a better terminal for operating many TUI agent's at once and none of these worked because they all want to own the agent.
I ended up building a terminal[0] with Tauri and xterm that works exactly how I want.

#117Mac only. Again . Apple is great but this is OpenAI devs showing their disconnect from the mainstream. Its complacent at best, contemptuous at worst. SamA or somebody really needs to give the product managers here a kick up the arse.
Hi! Romain here, I work on Codex at OpenAI. We totally hear you. The team actually built the app in Electron specifically so we can support Windows and Linux as well. We shipped macOS first, but Windows is coming very soon. Appreciate you calling this out. Stay tuned!
Electron? Why can't Codex write, or at least translate, your application to native code instead of using a multi-hundred-mb browser wrapper to display text? Is this the future of software engineering Codex is promising me?

Re: The Codex App
#120> Work with multiple agents in parallel
But you can already do that, in the terminal. Open your favourite terminal, use splits or tmux and spin up as many claude code or codex instances as you want. In parallel. I do it constantly. For all kinds of tasks, not only coding.
