I find that Opus misses a lot of details in the code base when I want it to design a feature or something. It jumps to a basic solution which is actually good but might affect something elsewhere.

GPT 5.4 on codex cli has been much more reliable for me lately. I used to have opus write and codex review, I now to the opposite (I actually have codex write and both review in parallel).

So on the latest models for my use case gpt > opus but these change all the time.

Edit: also the harness is shit. Claude code has been slow, weird and a resource hog. Refuses to read now standardized .agents dirs so I need symlink gymnastics. Hides as much info as it can… Codex cli is working much better lately.

Codex CLI is so much more pleasant to use than CC. I cancelled my CC subscription after the OpenCode thing, but somewhat ironically have recently found myself naturally trying the native Codex CLI client first more often over OpenCode.

Kinda funny how you don't actually need to use coercion if you put in the engineering work to build a product that's competitive on its own technical merits...
