I wonder why people don’t just use Amp Code and use the Oracle.

It’s Sonnet 4.5 + GPT-5 working together.

Codex just isn’t as good as people make it out to be. OpenAI seems to train on a lot of JavaScript/Tailwind to make visuals look more impressive but when it comes to actual backend work it just fails more than it succeeds. Sonnet is much better at chewing through tasks and GPT 5 is great at consulting planning and analysis.

Using Amp and asking it to check everything with the oracle leads to superior results.

But no one on HN has heard of it. I’m guessing HN hates twitter?

Because Claude is 20 bucks a month, Codex is 20 bucks a month, and any pay by token plan is way more expensive.

Not sure what your twitter comment is about, I use it and I’ve just never heard of this product. Looks cool, I will give it a test.

Might be who you follow but it seems everyone is talking about it more and more but I never see it mentioned on HN at all. So I figure the AI enthusiasts here aren’t on Twitter. (Just an assumption)

Worth trying out. The free version doesn’t have the oracle so I use the paid version.
