This is insane. I have to move to Codex now.
codex works but code it spits out is still not as clean as opus.

Re: Claude.ai and API unavailable [fixed]
#92Anybody else double fist Codex/Claude? They both code, solve problems, and find bugs in unique ways. I find using both is more useful than using either alone. I have them code review each others work, it's great.
I have max plans for both and over the past 5+ months now have built a custom "agent swarm" orchestrator with a database backed API and several skills CLI that the agents use to deliver orchestrated software factory runs.
We can use several different topologies (2 or 3 agents, etc.) but currently primarily use pair programming teams consisting of an opus4.7 for implementation and a codex5.5 for plan and code reviews, with a codex5.5 run-manager that pushes the agent lanes along and keeps things moving if they get stuck or escalate reviews to run-manager decisions.
Escalation to run-manager is a pretty regular thing as Codex5.5 generally picky and thorough and opus4.7 pushes back at times, and after three codex rejections we allow opus4.7 to escalate to run-manager decision to settle it. Usually, opus4.7 agrees and will continue iterating but it's not unusual that it will push back and escalate.
I've found codex5.5 is extremely capable. I just now finished a large multi-phase orchestrated swarm run with codex5.5 (xhigh) as the run-manager, presiding over 8 paired lanes, with 8 opus4.7 (high) implementers and 8 codex5.5 (high) reviewers, so 16 agents orchestrated and working in a swarm together. Codex5.5 managed that run perfectly for 14 hours with zero intervention needed by me.
Overall, I prefer to let opus4.7 draft the plans and then let codex5.5 offer git-diff style change feedback on plans, then let opus implement and codex review/manage. This seems to get the best result for me.

#93Earlier quoted context omitted.
There was another thread where some people pointed out, Amazon will give you access to Claude with better uptime for the same price (per million tokens up / down), downside is, it does not have the native ability to browse the web, but maybe that's a hidden blessing, since it's less likely to read some random website that has prompt injection embedded into it. For coding its fine, I havent experimented too much with…
I’m pretty sure it has the ability to browse the web. It can use playwright, web fetch, etc… I use bedrock at work and Claude subscription at home. They are pretty much exactly the same in my experience Or do you mean the Claude in chrome plugin? Bedrock doesn’t have that, but in my experience it doesn’t work that well. Neither does the Claude managed agents or ultra plan.
They likely refer to "WebSearch", not "WebFetch" (and the original statement is not correct).

#94Earlier quoted context omitted.
I found GPT 5.4 terrible. I just tested 5.5 and compared with opus its still not great.
What I found was that I *strongly* preferred Claude Code with its defaults. Codex was almost unusable to me -- It would spit out a 4-5 page plan where it kept repeating itself, where Claude would give me a crisp 1-2 pager I could actually review. *But* I don't work with the defaults -- I work with my own prompt framework based off of superpowers. Given sufficient prompt scaffolding, I've found the models relatively i…
I lack a bit of context. Can you point me to a place that explains what you use?

#96At work we have unlimited use of models from Anthropic and OpenAI (for now). My coworker, a Claude Code Opus 4.6 diehard, stopped by my desk today to say he finally installed Codex to try 5.5 and his feedback was basically “it just works and does what I ask and it doesn’t disconnect and it’s just so very matter of fact.” “Yeah I’ve been telling you this since like gpt-5 man!” “I know I know…” I have not spent much ti…
Plus one. I held off for too long out of concern that it wouldn't stack up and I'd come right back to Anthropic.
I switched a few days ago and work has been much less frustrating. Feels like CC did back in February before they started playing games.
It also doesn't eat nearly as many tokens, so it's saving me $100/mo.

#97Does Anthropic publish postmortems for incidents like these?
Re: Claude.ai and API unavailable [fixed]
#98I think we've hit the "who's the most reliable" stage for these tools.
We can now shop around easily. They almost all do the same thing now. The models are "Just Enough".

I appreciate the objective anecdote, but obviously Coke™.
