> OpenAI has a new thing called codex but it isn't very good yet. I tried it and it's super flaky. Lot's of errors and it gets stuck when that happens.

I agree with this, not sure the experience of everyone else but I felt like Claude Code is more useful.

Meanwhile, I'm keeping tabs on Aider and open-codex, what other options are there?

Thanks for mentioning open-codex. Did not notice that there is a codex fork which is open to other models (update: totally missed that original codex allows that too now). How do you like it? Especially in comparison to Claude Code?

Thanks for answering! I also skipeed that the original codex now allows for other models (perhaps they pulled the open-codex part???). To be fair, I prefer Claude Code to both codexes.
