You just convinced me to try it. Claude just copy pastes, does search and replace, zero abstractions and I'm the one that needs to think about the edge cases.

You may think that's a good thing but it's not. Codex is great at coming up with solutions to problems that don't exist and failing to find solution to problems that do. In the end you have 300 new lines of code and nothing to show for it.
That's why I have Claude write the code and Codex review.
that’s like having oleg kiselyov’s code reviewed by my middle school daughter :)
I didn't know your middle school daughter is a genius coder, congratulations!
